Les Nouveaux Riches |
I could see that the sun it was deadly |
She’s putting her hand in the fire |
Her velvety skin it was cooking |
Lily white, lily white turning to raspberry |
But when she slips in between the sheets tonight |
The memory will linger and burn |
And when she look at the face in the mirror |
What a terrible sight |
Lily white turning to raspberry |
(When it burns you rub on the lotion |
If it stings you sit in the ocean, oh no) |
Les nouveaux riches, when they |
Tres fatigue they fly, off to the sunshine |
They set jet away, they don’t |
Get a kick, they don’t get a buzz man |
They, talk in circles, they not for us oh |
Les nouveaux riches, when they |
Tres fatigue they fly, off to the ocean |
They hot foot away, they don’t |
Get a buzz, they don’t get a kick |
Man they, talk in circles |
They must be thick, a say tick dem |
A tick tick tick-a |
I could see that the guys were a hassle |
She tried to handle them cool |
But her interbreeding was showing |
Tumbling out on the banks of the old |
Swimming pool, oh oh oh |
So she buried her fears in a bottle |
The juices beginning to flow |
But her stiff upper lip it was trembling |
Tripping her up, her words were beginning to roll |
Hush your mouth, you can’t fool the natives |
Telegraph, they’s going to relay it, oh no |
Les nouveaux riches, when they |
Tres fatigue they fly, off to the sunshine |
They set jet away, they don’t |
Get a kick, they don’t get a buzz man |
They, talk in circles, they not for us oh |
Les nouveaux riches, when they |
Tres fatigue they fly, off to the ocean |
They hot foot away, they don’t |
Get a buzz, they don’t get a kick |
Man they, talk in circles |
They must be thick, a say tick dem |
A tick tick tick-a |
I remember the tears in her eyes |
She tried to hide them away |
But her time it was going too quickly |
Just another few days, she’ll soon be flying away |
But her memory will stay here forever |
A time she will never forget |
All the sun and the sand and the water |
Such a beautiful place, she never got her feet wet |
No way, she keeping a cool head |
She got a tan, from under the sun bed, oh no |
Les nouveaux riches, when they |
Tres fatigue they fly, off to the sunshine |
They set jet away, they don’t |
Get a kick, they don’t get a buzz man |
They, talk in circles, they not for us oh |
Les nouveaux riches, when they |
Tres fatigue they fly, off to the ocean |
They hot foot away, they don’t |
Get a buzz, they don’t get a kick |
Man they, talk in circles |
They must be thick, a say tick dem |
A tick tick tick-a |
