You don´t care about nothing
so you don´t care about love
If you want me to come back
you´d better change
You´d better give up talking ´bout money
begin thinking of love
If you want me to come back
you´d better change

You´d better change for the better
It costs more than dollars and cents
Take it from me
there´s got to be
an end to this decadence
this decadence

You don´t care about people
so you don´t care about love
If you want me to come back
you´d better change
You´d better give up talking ´bout money
begin thinking of love
If you want me to come back
you´d better change

You´d better change for the better
It costs more than dollars and cents
Take it from me
there´s got to be
an end to this decadence
this decadence

You don´t care about people
so you don´t care about pain
If you want me to come back
you´d better change

You´d better change for the better
Start using some common sense
Take it from me
there´s got to be
an end to this decadence
For decadence is fatal
it´s the beginning of the end
In self-defence
I cannot recommend
this decadence

You don´t care about real life
You´re too distant and strange
If you want me to come back
you´d better change for the better
It may be rather intense
Stop this caprice
You´ve got to cease
this fin-de-siècle pretence

For decadence is fatal
It´s the beginning of the end
In consequence
I cannot recommend
this decadence
