I, got my G.E.D. with a 2.2, |
|
I couldn't take 4 more in a business school, |
|
Just to spend another 20 in a cubicle, |
|
So I got a summer job cleaning swimming pools. |
|
Then I saw my little angel in a one piece suit, |
|
She had a high class mind and her face was cute, |
|
And for the first time I didn't know what to do, |
|
I said I better start to make the cash, |
|
Love is for the middle class. |
|
If all I had was love, |
|
Would I still be lovely? |
|
If all I gave was love, |
|
Would you give up on me? |
|
But if you measure love in false securities, |
|
I owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't need your lovin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothing at all. |
|
Wee ooh, wee oh, wee oh, wee o, hey! |
|
Your daddy got in trouble with the IRS, |
|
Left your mama with a baby and a pile of debt, |
|
Sent you off to public school with all the rest, |
|
Now you're lookin for a man who can pay the rent. |
|
And for the first time you don't know what to do, |
|
Your head say no but your heart says true, |
|
And every other man just puts you last, |
|
I said I better start to make the cash, |
|
Love is for the middle class. |
|
If all I had was love, |
|
Would I still be lovely? |
|
If all I gave was love, |
|
Would you give up on me? |
|
But if you measure love in false securities, |
|
I owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't need your lovin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothing at all. |
|
Wee ooh, wee oh, wee oh, wee o, hey! |
|
Oh, I wouldn't mind it if we nickel and we dime it just to be together in the end, |
|
Maybe just a little till we make it to the middle and they're takin half of every cent, |
|
If you find a brother who can take you from the gutter then I get it if you gotta go, |
|
But does he really see you like you know I really see you does he love you with his rebel soul? |
|
Like I can love you baby, |
|
Like I do! |
|
If all I had was love, |
|
Would I still be lovely? |
|
If all I gave was love, |
|
Would you give up on me? |
|
But if you measure love in false securities, |
|
I owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't need your lovin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothin at all, |
|
I owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothin at all, |
|
Don't need your lovin at all, |
|
Don't owe you nothin at all. |
|
Wee ooh, wee oh, wee oh, wee oh, hey! |
