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
