The Hollies

High Classed

(Alan Clarke/Tony Hicks/Graham Nash)

Track 12 (final) on album 'For Certain Because' (December 1966)



You're high classed

oh well, your taste is good.

I know I can't love you

like I know I should

but we got a good understanding

oh, we've got us.



You wear good clothes

oh, when I wear rags.

You got educated friends

But we got a good understanding

We've got us.



We can't be seen in public

oh, we gotta find lowly places to go.

If they see me

walking with you.

Your friends'll cut you dead

I've seen it happen

I know.



You eat caviar

oh, when I eat toast

I know I can't buy ya

The things you like most.

We got a good understanding

We've got us.



Oh, sing no song.



{interlude}



We can't be seen in public

oh, we gotta find lowly places to go.

If they see me

walking with you.

Your friends'll cut you dead

I've seen it happen

I know.



You eat caviar

oh, when I eat toast

I know I can't buy ya

the things you like most.

We got a good understanding

We've got us.



Oh, yeah, oh, we've got us

Believe me

oh, we've got us.
