What, with all this "I hate rich and famous people, oh wait, I make millions of dollars per song I produce, but I am going to pretend that I don't and no one will notice" shit. All they ever do is make songs that sound the same and wear their clothes that say MADE on them. I'm sure that they realize they are not punks but are trying to be, and their only fans are little girls who also think they are "punks."
Good Charlotte was an ok band before this whole "independent punk" stage, with songs that were able to listen to but had cheesy lyrics. They need to decide what kind of music they are going to make and make it without repeating themselves. [/rant]

Have you even listened to lifestyles of the rich and the famous?

No? well then get a fu</>cking clue.

Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'
If money is such a problem
Well they got mansions
Think we should rob them

They say about how rich bastards should stop complaining because they are loaded.

They say about how rich bastards should stop complaining because they are loaded.Yes, that's the point of this topic. They bitch about how famous people have a lot of money, but they're forgetting that they make more money than like 90% of the country's population.

I think you're missing the point Assman. They aren't complaining about people having money, but people who have alot of money and whine about being famous.

Not that they do it particularly well. Awful lyrics. Glad they're a one hit, two at best, wonder.

To quote Eddie Vetter on Good Charlotte...

"They're good, it just sounds like...sounds like...well....it tastes...like a popsicle that's been stuck up somebody's ass....but that's my opinion....

Some people are into that!...Who am I to say?"

In the song "Lifestyles of the rich and the Famous" they are complaining about how rich people complain. And they themselves are rich.

Kane Knight, oh I do believe it to be sweet sweet hypocrisy.

Mmm...delicious.

They're saying "if money's such a problem..."

Where in the song do they complain about their own money?

(If they do, I really don't know. GC sucks more ass than an entire platoon of Spartans...)

(If they do, I really don't know. GC sucks more ass than an entire platoon of Spartans...) I thought they were just saying "money is such a problem," talking about themselves, which frankly doesn't make sense because money isn't a problem to them. I dunno, I might have just gotten the lyrics wrong.

In the context of these lines, it doesn't sound like they are bitching about how money is a problem for themselves, but instead, the usual run ofthe mill rich.

LOL gay

Always see it on t.v.
Or read it in the magazines
Celebrities who want sympathy
All they do is piss and moan
Inside the rolling stone
Talkin'about how hard life can be

I'd like to see them spend a week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
If they could spend a day or two
Walkin' in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
They would fall... (fall)

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'...
If money is such a problem
Well they've got mansions
Think we should rob them

Well did you know when you were famous you could kill your wife
And there's no such thing as 25 to life
As long as you've got the cash, to pay for Cochran
And did you know if you were caught and you were smokin' crack
McDonalds wouldn't even wanna take you back
You could always just run for mayor of D.C.

I'd like to see them spend a week
Livin' life out on the street
I don't think they would survive
If they could spend a day or two
Walking in someone else's shoes
I think they'd stumble and they'd fall
they would fall

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'...
If money is such a problem
Well they've got mansions
Think we should rob them

Lifestyles of the rich and the famous
They're always complainin'
Always complainin'...
If money is such a problem
They've got so many problems
Think I could solve them

Lifestyles of the rich and famous
We'll take your clothes, cash, cars and homes just stop complainin'

Lifestyles of the rich and famous...
Lifestyles of the rich and famous...
Lifestyles of the rich and famous

As you can see it's not just them bitchin'

Not like they live on the streets, I remember them having a pretty big house according to some show on E channel or something.

8. Charlotte The Harlot

[Dave Murray]

Giving a swish with your arse in the air, don't you know what they're saying?
Charlotte you're so refined when you take all the love that they're giving.
Sticking with every man that you find, don't you know what they're after?
Charlotte you've got your legs in the air, don't you hear all the laughter?

[Chorus]
Charlotte the Harlot show me your legs,
Charlotte the Harlot take me to bed.
Charlotte the Harlot let me see blood,
Charlotte the Harlot let me see love.

Taking so many men to your room, don't you feel no remorse?
You charge them a "fiver", It's only for starters.
And ten for the main course.
And you've got no feelings, they died long ago.
Don't you care who you let in?
And don't you know you're breaking the law with the service you're giving.

[Chorus]

There was a time when you left me standing there,
Picking up pieces of love off the floor.
Well Charlotte you left me alone in there,
To make your ends as a bloody whore.
Well Charlotte you told me you love me true,
Picking up pieces of love yesterday.
Well Charlotte you're draws are off color too
'Cause you're making love all day.

Giving a swish with your arse in the air, don't you know what they're saying?
Charlotte you're so refined when you take all the love that they're giving.
Sticking with every man that you find, don't you know what they're after?
Charlotte you've got your legs in the air, don't you hear all the laughter?

[Chorus]

So what?

GC is saying "if you think you've got it bad, try living without your money for a little while."

Jesus, don't be stupid. I hate having to repeatedly defend a bad band just because people are too retarded to understand their lyrics.

These aren't horribly complex or confusing lines, people!

alright...before mtv's little thing w/ the all things rock countdown and lifestyles...they were nothing and no one knew about them...the first cd (self tilted) was quite good i belive...i really don't like them but i do own both cds and the first one when i bought it i liked once mtv came into play and the "mainstream pop" go into them thats when i belive they turned. anyways if they would complain about being rich and all famous then they would be hipocritical..but since i haven't heard about them getting away with stuff i would say that they are just a band that made a cd and it got big bc of all the hot topic goths that roam the earth..
