They drive expensive autos
And when they tip the valets
as not food but superiority
Contributin' to charities
when accountants say it's smart
They retain the finest doctors
for diseases of the heart
Clinking glasses at the country clubs
cause there's nothing they lack
Rich are different, honey
They make money in their sleep
While you and I work overtime
for the pennies we hope to keep.
They dwell in shiny mansions
locked behind steel gates
Private property tended by inmates
They're disposable incomes
They float above the chaos
The rich are different, honey
they make money in their sleep
while you and I work overtime
for the pennies we need to keep
And all your working stiffs
and placing bets with your bookies
Drooling to be millionaires
while nothing comes for free
You'll pay some way for quick prosperity
The rich are different, honey
They make money in their sleep
While you and I work overtime
For the pennies we hope to keep
