From the album ‘Slender Sherbet‘ (1995).
Lyrics
Photographs by the paparazzi
Joyrides in his Mazerati
Invites from every arty fashion victim
To every warehouse party
I’m not blind, I’ve seen you shine
When he’s around
And I’ve watched all your desire
With fascination
Watched its satisfaction
And lying alone in bed I’ve read the book he sent us
‘The Rules of Attraction’ by Bret Easton Ellis
Fame, power, the love of women
Hey, Jack, I’m all right
Staying alive, I’ll keep swinging
It’s a lovely day tonight
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
When you’re up everybody wants your babies
And where we lived could’ve been bigger
And what I earned a much higher figure
That didn’t seem important, I’m a little disappointed
But I’m trying not to get bitter
I’m not blind, I’ve seen you shine
When he’s around
And I’ve watched all your desire
With fascination
Watched its satisfaction
And lying alone I’ve read ‘Success’ by Martin Amis
‘The Rules of Attraction’ by Bret Easton Ellis
Fame, power, the love of women
Hey, Jack, I’m all right
Staying alive, I’ll keep swinging
It’s a lovely day tonight
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
When you’re up everybody wants your…
Fame, power, the love of women
Hey, Jack, I’m all right
Staying alive, I’ll keep swinging
It’s a lovely day tonight
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
When you’re up everybody wants your…
Fame, power, the love of women
Hey, Jack, I’m all right
Staying alive, I’ll keep swinging
It’s a lovely day tonight
Lifestyles of the rich and famous
When you’re up…
Fame, power, the love of women
Hey, Jack, I’m all right
Staying alive, I’ll keep swinging
It’s a lovely day tonight
