Lap Of Luxury

(album: No Jive - 1991)

She was a wall street celebrity
With upward mobility
Walked and talked like a man
But that was o.k. by me
Two bit losers can never be choosers
No nit picking kicking the can

Living in the lap
Living in the lap of luxury

Seventeen self abusals
Got me twenty blind, flat refusals
While she's dressing all in white
I'm getting set up for my life
Hard work never stopped the dance
But proving it just ain't worth the chance

Living in the lap
Living in the lap of luxury

Everything's alrighty by me
With rising credibility
I'm leaving a mark with my indelability
She's earning the money
I'm serving the honey
Bring it on home to the hive--no jive

Living in the lap
Living in the lap of luxury
