It looks like we squandered the whole afternoon Staring from the terrace to the sky But why would we take the boat out When I can watch the whales swimming on your tie? Let's go get dressed for a casual dinner We can wear khakis and blue cable sweaters And no one will know that we need Four or five more co*ktails just to go to bed together Don't you love it honey, love us having so much money In our summer situation by the sea? Would you like a stiff bellini or a very dry martini? It'll wash away your mediocrity This looks like a slice of heaven Feels like a piece of preppy purgatory It's true what they say, money doesn't make you happy It makes you love a life of misery Now that we're settled at our beachside table We could talk about our problems, but why would we bother? When we can just sip on this overpriced Pinot And speak of lovely easterlies coming off the water Don't you love it honey, love us having so much money In our summer situation by the sea? Would you like a stiff bellini or a very dry martini? It'll wash away your mediocrity This looks like a slice of heaven Feels like a piece of preppy purgatory It's true what they say, money doesn't make you happy It makes you love a life of misery, oh yeah It makes you love a life of misery
