The money won't last forever ---
|
rent man called twice today.
|
I hope some day you'll find me
|
in the lap of luxury.
|
|
Searched for a new apartment
|
but they don't grow on trees.
|
Just want to lay my head
|
in the lap of luxury.
|
|
Stepped out on a new horizon ---
|
felt a new spring in my feet.
|
Found a job, it could set me up
|
dangling in the lap of luxury.
|
|
And the gaffer is a man of substance ---
|
drives a jag and takes high tea.
|
Lives beyond the industrial wasteland,
|
laughing in the lap of luxury.
|
|
I need money, now, to soothe my heart!
|
|
Buy me a Datsun or Toyota ---
|
get the tax man to agree
|
all expenses I can muster
|
from the lap of luxury.
