Lyrics[]

Look at all the nice things money can buy

Every day there's more and more

Do you ever stop and wonder why

you're neither rich nor poor?

Eine Kleine Middle Klasse Musik...

Dropping off the school kids in the second car

Parking on the yellow line

Getting in the shopping on a credit card

Knowing how to choose a wine

Eine Kleine Middle Klasse Musik...

Proud of your home and your neighbourhood

It's so up-and-coming that you feel so good!

This is freedom in a land of plenty

You get nowhere if you just stand still

You got to hold on to what you got as best you can

'cos if you don't - someone else will

Look at all the nice things money can buy

Every day there's more and more

Do you ever stop and wonder why

you need to lock your door?

Loneliness is all that

people ever share

Smuggling their pain through

'Nothing To Declare'

Living next to people

who agree to disagree

Happy in a pie-chart

society

Eine Kleine Middle Klasse Musik...
