I'm getting out of this high-rise penthouse suite where we pretend life's rosy and sweet I'm going back to the folks that I used to know Where everyone is what they seem to be
And these high-class friends that you like to hang around When they look my way they're always looking down I'm tired of spending every dime I make to finance this way of life I've learned to hate
(chorus) I'm going back to a better class of losers This up-town living's really got me down I need friends who don't pay their bills on home computers and who buy their coffee beans already ground You think it's disgraceful that they drink three-dollar wine But a better class of losers suits me fine
You say the grass is greener on the other side From where I stand I can't see grass at all And the concrete and the steel won't change the way you feel It takes more than caviar to have a ball
(chorus)
You think it's disgraceful that they drink three-dollar wine But a better class of losers suits me fine
