Lyrics

High Society

You took me home
And you spent a half an hour on the phone
You kept me waiting for such a long time (long time)

The things you say to try to make me think
That you had been around
You'd like to think that you had been down

I never can find the words to tell you
What I really think about your lies, lies, lies
I never can find the words to tell you

Yeah, you talk about high society
When life is really low you see
Not high, high, high, high, high, yeah

Why do you do the things you do to me?
I don't know but I think you've got it in for me
Why do you do the things you do to me?
I don't know but I think you've got it in for me

Said "we're in love"
Then you wanted to take me to the country club
All I could think was that would be sad (be sad)
Said "that's okay", and I had to tell you
"Maybe some other day, I'd really like to meet your new dad"

I never can find the words to tell you
What I really think about your lies, lies, lies
I never can find the words to tell you

Well, you talk about high society
When life is really low you see
Not high, high, high, high, high, yeah

Why do you do the things you do to me?
I don't know but I think you've got it in for me
Why do you do the things you do to me?
I don't know but I think you've got it in for me

I never can find the words to tell you
I never can find the words to tell you
I just can't find the words to tell you
I never can find the words to tell you
