Retail Therapy

Chris Pratt, Copyright January 2001

When she told me I was leavin, I thought I'd never heal
but I went down to the car lot and made myself a deal
A shiny Z3 beemer as black as any coal
I was workin through my grief on my way to bein whole

I stared at this garage sale that now I called my home
I identified my issues and I grabbed the telephone
Send me lazy boys, two TVs, give me everything I lost
When it comes to my well being, you just can't count the cost

	It's retail therapy, as good as any shrink
	with retail therapy, I don't even have to think
	Cause with retail therapy, you can bet I'll be complete
	and I won't need no counselor to get me on my feet

I think I should go skiin, yeah I could use a trip
how bout aspen, maybe whistler, so I'm sure that I'll forget
a pretty babe beside me and my visa close at hand
So proud to face my problems and finally make a stand 

Chorus

I look so hot in leather pants but they my took my card away
instead of goin out and gettin well, in this empty house I stay
and dammit all, I'm missin her, I thought that that was all gone
I can't afford a counsellor, to help me carry on
