    Ah, what was the question
    Oh yeah, momento mori
    It means remember it's inevitable that we will all die
    It sounds quite depressing when said so raw and direct
    But it means don't hang yourself on a material life
    But that gets dropped when I'm bop on shopping day
    Am I shallow, am i hung up on such wrong ways
    Yes I am shallow and loving every wrong play
    If love is blind then why do we all buy lingerie
    I've got nothing in my life away from the studio
    So when I'm loose I end up consuming dough

    Memento mori, memento mori
    It's latin and it says we must all die
    I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit
    So I buy buy buy buy buy buy

    If I start to think of life I have prangs of paranoia
    Pull one stripey shirt off a racks or another
    Overthink my fate grasping a pastel jumper
    Panic buy a flight home, prang though actually sober
    Change my mind and fly back into vegas
    Buy more pastel shades and some famous labels
    Frame the ferrari through the day with the mayhem
    Just to forget about the race in my head
    I don't really care about the luck and the look
    But driving a ferrarri is fucking book

    Memento mori, memento mori
    It's latin and it says we must all die
    I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit
    So I buy buy buy buy buy buy

    I think if I could see me now from my growing past
    I'd Hate the shirted cunt that seems to be so fucking flash
    I reckon from the threadsI think all I think's about cash
    But my manager tells me I ought to think about cash
    It's like people don't know the eighties started
    My car just keeps carding with the card machine
    You don't regard the old you, driving a ferrarri
    Mine's the driving license through Nevada at speed
    I never think about money
    In fact I have no idea how much money I have

    Memento mori, memento mori
    It's latin and it says we must all die
    I tried it for a while but it's a load of boring shit
    So I buy buy buy buy buy buy

    Chilly 'n carmen air sips as I'm parting her hair
    But I'm an asbo drinker I want to be chilly parkair
    But asbo drinkers just don't dig my art and my flair
    Even if they dig my asbo driving, past their carlight flair
    Sometimes when I my diamond trinkets with my whores
    I know I've strayed a bit from my old sins and my walks
    But then I laugh out loud that my car still fucking talks
    I feel awful for a bit but at least I'm not poor
