Lyrics
High Society
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Top shopping at the speed of sound
Stop poppin' down the Mega-Pound
If you can, then you should
Walk, walking on the yellow line
Tick-tockin' 'cos we're so out of time
But for now, we've got so much to do
Why?
We're the high society
We're the high society
And we do what we want
And we want what we do to be free
Tip tapping at the telephones
Talk talking with those other drones
As they fly overhead and they see how much we spend on our shoes
Lost shopping at the megastore
Keep trucking in the four-by-four
Buying milk by the bulk 'cause the kids love the cartoon cow
Why?
'Cause we're the high society
We're the high society
And we do what we want
And we want what we do
To be free
We're the high society
In the city varieties
And we like what we do
And we do what we like to be free
'Cause we're the high society
We're the high society
And we do what we want
And we want what we do to be free
'Cause we're the high society
And we're riddled with anxiety
And we do what we want
And we want what we do to be free
