Stranded On Easy Street

Lyrics
Well, she was so fine on the first impression Taken, taken in by the view With eyes so soft and a face so smooth Well, I found her selling in a fashion booth All that I said was, "Do you sell suits?" Said, "You're a scream and your accent's so cute" Mother had to meet me, it all sounded funny Then my friends told me, "Well, the girls got money" It's alright, it's okay Hey, don't you worry about a thing You're the king today but there's a price you may pay If you take your seat in the royal suite You might get stranded on easy street Well, she said she was when a good time girl Laughing, laughing a bit too loud When such a face the specialist creates Well, she gets the benefit of the doubt I know that she wanted more than I could give But just had to see how the other half lived Showed me to her friends, she showed me her throne I didn't sell my soul, I just a took out a loan It's alright, it's okay Hey, don't you worry about a thing You're the king today but there's a price you may pay If you take your seat in the royal suite You might get stranded on easy street Run to her mother, the social x ray star She put me at the wheel of her father's new car Loved, how her touch made me want to drive farther She loved how her money meant, she'd tell me how far Hey, it's alright, it's okay Hey, don't you worry about a thing You're the king today but there's a price you may pay If you take your seat in the royal suite You might get stranded on easy street You might get stranded on easy street Might get stranded on easy street
