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 pickin´ kickin´ the can

Livin´ in the lap
Livin´ in the lap of luxury

Seventeen self abusals
Got me twenty blind, flat refusals
While she´s dressin´ all in white
I´m gettin´ set up for my life
Hard work never stopped the dance
But provin´ it just ain´t worth the chance

Livin´ in the lap
Livin´ in the lap of luxury

Everything´s alrighty by me
With risin´ credibility
I´m leavin´ a mark with my indelability
She´s earnin´ the money
I´m servin´ the honey
Bring it on home to the hive--no jive

Livin´ in the lap
Livin´ in the lap of luxury
