Madeleine Peyroux

The Kind You Can't Afford
You got palatial mansions I got a rented flat You got Persian kittens I got tabby cat You got art collections I got comic books You use plastic surgery I stay the way I look You travel private jet I stand by overnight You romance with chandeliers And I use candlelight Oh, there's one thing I got more When I'm rich, you're poor Is that real good loving The kind you can't afford While you're enjoying banquets I'm eating cafe snacks You're in designer clothing I'm in plastic Macs Sipping on Napoleon Brandy Letras de cancionesI'm slinging a can of beer Packing matching luggage I'm mostly staying here Your educated accent Might beat the local slang Don't bet your staff and the servants Against my backstreet gang 'Cause there's one thing I got more When I'm rich, you're poor Is that real good loving The kind you can't afford Your dinner jackets and your ballroom gowns No warmer than my jeans Caviar No more filling than a can of beans Go to your classic concert I'll be with a local band You'll get brand new everything I'll keep my second hand Ain't no new fitted bathroom Got my water tap You think I'm full of envy? I know where the money's at Oh, there's one thing I got more When I'm rich, you're poor Is that real good loving The kind you can't afford It's the kind you It's the kind you can't afford It's the kind It's the kind you can't afford You got palatial mansions I got rented flat Persian kittens I got a tabby cat Cruising in a new Mercedes I'm broke down in a Ford You're out on your new yacht I'm out on my surfing board Ooh, surfing board From Letras Mania
