SocietyÂ`s got us by the you-know-what weÂ`ve been livinÂ` way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook and itÂ`s all we can do to get by

I keep sayinÂ` iÂ`ll never bring it up again but i just canÂ`t keep still
Who ever heard of people poor as us drive a cadillac coupe deville
We wear fancy clothes that we canÂ`t anyway afford than anything else we do
There outta be a law against living this way when we need little things like food

And iÂ`m gonna have to spend my birthday money to pay the telephone bill
ThatÂ`s what i get for feeling the kind of hopes i canÂ`t afford to fill

Â`cause societyÂ`s got us by the you-know-what weÂ`re been livinÂ` way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook and itÂ`s all we can do to get by

And we canÂ`t afford this kind of rent but i know you wouldnÂ`t move
And who am i kiddinÂ` i wouldnÂ`t either
This is what you call in a groove
Oh itÂ`s our little way of feelinÂ` big when you canÂ`t be big for real
And we do deserve these material things we just canÂ`t pay the bills

WeÂ`re afflicted with a love and high class dreams
And we canÂ`t afford to dream
But knowinÂ` all that and doinÂ` somethinÂ` Â`bout it are two different things

Â`cause societyÂ`s got us by the you-know-what weÂ`re been livinÂ` way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook and itÂ`s all we can do to get by

Yes societyÂ`s got us by the you-know-what weÂ`re been livinÂ` way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook and itÂ`s all we can do to get by

Yes societyÂ`s got us by the you-know-what weÂ`re been livinÂ` way too high
We got champagne taste and a beer pocketbook and itÂ`s all we can do to get by
