I Sold All My CDs

Another acoustic

lyrics

In the 1990s I sold a lotta CDs
All for drug and drinking money

Tom Petty’s Wildflowers was the first to go
Then REM’s Automatic for the People
Reading, Writing, and Arithmatic
Then Built to Spill’s Keep It Like a Secret

I sold the Score, Copper Blue, and Sonic Youth’s Goo
Illmatic, Parklife, and Dookie too

I didn’t get as much for them as I had paid
But it was enough for a quarter bag of mexican weed

In the 1990s
I sold all my CDs
For drug and drinking money
I made sure to burn em all on my old computer
That I got from rent-to-own

I sold Time Out of Mind and Things Fall Apart
Exile in Guyville, and the Lonesome Crowded West
I sold Slanted and Enchanted and Bone Machine
Pearl Jam’s Ten and Siamese Dream

But I kept Bee Thousand
And an ex of mine stole it
Yeh I kept Endtroducing
And an ex of mine stole it
I kept Odelay
And I guess I lost it
Achtung Baby I still have around somewhere
