Slummin' In Paradise

[Verse 1]

I'm a long way off

But I'm still around

Sitting on the couch, I'm watching you

And if I take my time

All the others give in

And you still feel like you're standing in line

Oh no no no

[Pre-Chorus]

I just know that you're worth the wait

It's of no concern

It's a risk I'd gladly take

From time to time

[Chorus]

So don't worry about yourself at all

I'll hang your work up on my wall

Hose you down and dress you up real nice

With some brand new plans and a fancy car

Try to place your superstar

You can tell the story of your life

Without slummin' in paradise

[Verse 2]

I wonder how you feel

Or do I?

Standing on the corner

How's your view?

From the other side

Oh, Mr. Right

It's not a pretty sight alone

[Chorus]

So don't worry about yourself at all

I'll hang your work up on my wall

Hose you down and dress you up real nice

With some brand new plans and a fancy car

Try to place your superstar

You can tell the story of your life

Without slummin' in paradise

[Bridge]

You won't often see this letter

Handed over right away

I know the first time I found you wonderful

[Chorus]

So don't worry about yourself at all

I'll hang your work up on my wall

Hose you down and dress you up real nice

With some brand new plans and a fancy car

Try to place your superstar

You can tell the story of your life

Without slummin' in paradise

[Outro]

Oh-oh, slummin'

Slummin' in paradise

Oh
