b/w
The good things in life
Like a millionaire (12” only)
(Will Nobody Save) Louise
Does she get out to see her friends?
No, she stays at home alone
Eats like a bird and drinks like a fish
She can smile but she's transparent
I see through her every word
Is she a girl or is she a ghost?
She is the only girl in my world
I am the loneliest boy
She's close to extinction
The last of her kind
You save the earth and the whales and the trees,
will nobody save Louise?
Does she dress up like she used to?
No, she doesn't seem to care
She's bored of her clothes, her body and hair
She can dance but she can't stand
She would need a hundred helping hands
And I am only one small man
She is the only girl in my world
I am the loneliest boy
She's close to extinction
The last of her kind
You save the earth and the whales and the trees,
will nobody save Louise?
She won't walk to the end of her street
Too many friends she's frightened to meet
She won't talk in a public place
Too many people to stare at her ugly face
The Good Things in Life
His face is beautiful, square set and geometric
What did he see in you that he didn't see in me?
If only he knew you like I do
I'm not jealous at all, I just like your boyfriend
And that's all I like about you
I'm not angry at all, I'm just upset
Why do you get all the good things in life?
He rides a motorbike like Steve McQueen in ‘The Great Escape’
You will never ride with him, you're too prim to be a biker's tart
But I would be perfect for the part
He drinks a little heavily you treat him like a leper
When he's too drunk to sleep with you
Then maybe he'll sleep with me
Like a Millionaire
If you take me driving
I will bleach my hair
Wear my mother's white court shoes
and dress like a millionaire
Like a millionaire
Like a million poor people do
I could be your Miss Monroe and you could be my Joe DiMaggio
and we could do the things beautiful people like to do
If you take me dancing
I will drink 'til I can't stand
I'll walk like I'm falling, fall as I'm talking
I will walk like a millionaire
It hurts to look a mess
I'm poorly fed and poorly dressed and
I can't go out like this
Look at my face, it's a boy's disgrace
it's a boy's, it's a boy's disgrace
