Don't need the look of a millionaire.
|
Takes more than money just to live it up.
|
Don't need designer on the things I wear.
|
Takes more than fashion just to live it up.
|
Don't need my home sitting in Bel Air.
|
Forty room apartment just to live it up.
|
Don't need Jacuzzis or midnight affairs.
|
Neighbors in the nude just to live it up.
|
|
But I need to live it up, I need to live it up.
|
I want to live it up, live it up.
|
|
Don't need connections for a ringside seat.
|
Takes more than power just to live it up.
|
Don't need the keys to the governor's suite.
|
Takes more than politics to live it up.
|
Don't like the tricks they play on Easy Street.
|
So don't do me favors just to live it up.
|
Don't need to mingle with the stars I meet.
|
Backstage passes just to live it up.
|
But I need to live it up, I need to live it up.
|
I want to live it up, live it up.
|
|
Just look around you, so many ways
|
that you can live it up.
|
It's all around you, so many ways
|
that you can live it up.
|
It's all around you all you gotta do is open up.
|
|
Don't need to drink `til we all fall down.
|
Takes more than liquor just to live it up.
|
Don't need no dealer pushing me around.
|
Takes more than chemicals to live it up.
|
Don't need a ticket to a gambling town.
|
21 don't get it just to live it up.
|
Why are we looking in the lost and found?
|
People try so hard just to live it up.
|
But I need to live it up. I need to live it up.
|
I want to live it up, I got to live it up.
