We all want to live the high life, but few can ill afford it The glamour the glitz to dining at the Ritz, a means to which we could all be easily adjusted But the nine till five pays pittance for those shots in Hello and Vogue The dreamer can dream their dreams while living off that hefty loan The Range Rover, the Levante, the Lexus RX, who wouldn’t be jealous of a little luxury The clothes to the house with security and lights, boy you must be worth a few pennies Erroneousness and the falsehood of a life well concealed Paying back that percentage rate from which you may now reel The reality is your just keeping up with the Jones's Penny pinching is a way of life but best not show the neighbours Walk on with your head held high in the knowing that all’s not good Struggling to pay the bills and sometimes even your food So here comes the bail out from someone close by Indebted to your eyeballs without the decency to even cry The banks would laugh at your misgivings knowing the debt was in their hands But you carry on, it’s a way of life hanging onto that final strand You’re in the clear, all debt is gone, time to make a fresh new start A second hand Fiesta, *** burns in the seat, what happened to my big shiny car The mums at the gate all talking in sneers, now that I’m out of the pack Fill out that online form, more credit to burn, time to get back on track, and revitalize that false front.

False Front
Who wouldn't want a Lexus? Not the one with four wheels, silly The brazen, sweet-talking girl from Philly You could own a hundred thousand or a Milly It wouldn't make a difference We all should get a glimmer of romantic inference Once a in a day It keeps some of the stress away Little do you know That the influence you bestow Can really implement change in a heart Watch as these oxidizing effects tear itself apart I'm waiting for your misery to depart Like a New York City train She spends her weeknights crying over something so trivial Pour her self-doubts down the drain Where it belongs In the sewer Because the only man that truly deserves her Would still be with her when her last option is staying in the sewer Somebody get with Lexus And make her feel the elation we've always wanted her to feel Genuine.
