The Eagle Laughs at You

Lyrics
Jump inside your limousine
Run right 'round the world
Flash a hundred notes of green
Get yourself a girl

But all the time you're standing there
Looking like you're talking
The eagle laughs at you
Just barely walking

Run around your office block
Tell me what to do
Regulating life by clock
That's a lie for you

But all the time you're standing there
Looking like you're talking
The eagle laughs at you
Just barely walking

Hey, hey, hey, hey
There's nobody who has got enough money
To pay the entrance fee to paradise
And if you haven't got enough
Then you'll find it pretty rough
After living your luxurious life

Hey, hey, hey, hey

Run around your mansion
With a hundred servants clean
You will never do without
A million dollar dream

But all the time you're standing there
Looking like you're talking
The eagle laughs at you
Just barely walking

You know the eagle laughs at you
Just barely walking
The eagle laughs at you
Barely walking
