Lyrics

Come back, baby, come to me
I still need a family
I would like a mistress fair
Who wears see-through underwear

And that's not enough
Still need more stuff

Video games I can't play
Compact discs I store away
Girls whose names I can't recall
Line them up; I want them all

And I'm going nuts
I like big butts

I don't need these boxes
I don't need this junk
I don't need my play space
???
I just want to chill out
Space to be alone
Why can't you hear me
This is my home

Chocolate donuts, tofu dogs
Ranch Doritos on cheese logs
I am in a downward spin
Hey there, sweet thing, come on in

'Cause I'm all alone
My three cellphones

I don't need these boxes
I don't need this junk
I don't need my play space
???
I just want to chill out
Space to be alone
Why can't you hear me
This is my home

All alone
My three cellphones
My ten girlfriends
My new Mercedes Benz

I don't need these boxes
I don't need this junk
I don't need my play space
???
I just want to chill out
Space to be alone
Why can't you hear me
This is my home

This is my home

Come back, baby, come to me
I still need a family
I would like a mistress fair
Who wears see-through underwear

And that's not enough
Still need more stuff

Every time I think I found
The key to happiness
Something else comes in my view
And I just can't resist
I want everyone and everything for me
(Everything for me)
I want everyone and everything for me
(Everything for me)

Video games I can't play
Compact discs I store away
Friends whose names I can't recall
Line them up; I want them all

'Cause I'm all alone
My brand new home

Every time I think I found
The key to happiness
Something else comes in my view
And I just can't resist
I want everyone and everything for me
(Everything for me)
I want everyone and everything for me
(Everything for me)

'Cause I'm all alone
My brand new home
And it's not enough
Still need more stuff

Every time I think I found
The key to happiness
Something else comes in my view
And I just can't resist
I want everyone and everything for me
(Everything for me)
I want everyone and everything for me
(Everything for me)
