"La Grande Vie" lyrics
I wanna have all the finer things in life
I wanna have a Ferrari
You drove me home and said you want me for you wife
In your Chevette I said sorry
You're not so broke I just have to make you bend
If you're to win my affection
The way you dress
The way you drive
The way you spend
Just need the tiniest correction
La Grande Vie it's a great life It's a bash
La Grande Vie but you've got to spend the cash
La Grande Vie it's a great life not a bore
La Grande Vie but you've got to drop some more
I want a man who can give me what I need
I want a man who gives freely
But you're a man with a special kind of greed
You want it all as a freebie
La Grande Vie it's a great life If you try
La Grande Vie but you've got to make a buy
La Grande Vie it's a great life, don't you know
La Grande Vie but you've got to spend some dough
You want a girl who will love you and obey
All of your whims and your wishes
But that's a job, frankly, you can't give away
Not even with a set of dishes
You want it all but you want it at a price
You want a dime on the dollar
You'll get no piece you, won't even get a slice
Not even if you beg and scream and holler
La Grande Vie it's a great life aces high
La Grande Vie not a big mac, coke and fries
La Grande Vie it's a great life don't you see
La Grande Vie but it costs a modest fee
Ss for champagne I could drink it every day
I'd gladly drown in that ocean
Your taste in wine must extend past Perrier
If you're to win my devotion
I get a headache when you speak of sex
I know that's really a crime, dear
I spell Relief R O L E X
Pardon, do you have the time dear?
La Grande Vie it's a great life, step this way
La Grande Vie to the roos and on a high
La Grande Vie it's a great life cut the deck
La Grande Vie while you're at it, write a check
Puerto Vallarta is nice this time a year
Also I like the beach at Kona
But Coney Island is the place where you'll appear
You're not a generous donor
I need champagne, truffles, caviar
Send it here, make it snappy
You send me fish sticks, beer and pickles in a jar
Frankly, my dear, I'm not happy
La Grande Vie it's a great life, that's for real
La Grande Vie but I need a sweeter deal
La Grande Vie it's a great life, me and you
La Grande Vie but you just won't spend soon
La Grande Vie, La Grande Vie, La Grande Vie, La Grande Vie
I wanna have a Ferrari
You drove me home and said you want me for you wife
In your Chevette I said sorry
You're not so broke I just have to make you bend
If you're to win my affection
The way you dress
The way you drive
The way you spend
Just need the tiniest correction
La Grande Vie it's a great life It's a bash
La Grande Vie but you've got to spend the cash
La Grande Vie it's a great life not a bore
La Grande Vie but you've got to drop some more
I want a man who can give me what I need
I want a man who gives freely
But you're a man with a special kind of greed
You want it all as a freebie
La Grande Vie it's a great life If you try
La Grande Vie but you've got to make a buy
La Grande Vie it's a great life, don't you know
La Grande Vie but you've got to spend some dough
You want a girl who will love you and obey
All of your whims and your wishes
But that's a job, frankly, you can't give away

La Grande Vie, La Grande Vie, La Grande Vie, La Grande Vie
