Background: Go to Las Wages, Los Wages, go to Las Wages

(continues throughout)



While the poor people sleep with the shade on the light

While the poor people sleep all the stars come out at night

While the poor people sleep with the shade on the light

While the poor people sleep all the stars come out at night



After closing time at the Guernsey Fair,

I detect the El Supremo from the room at the top of the stairs

Well I've been around the world, and I've been in the Washington Zoo

And in all my travels as the facts unravel, I've found this to be true



[Chorus]



They got the house on the corner, with the rug inside

They got the booze they need, all that money can buy

They got the shapely bodies, they got the Steely Dan T-shirts

And for the coupe de grace, they're outrageous

Honey let me tell you



[Chorus]



Show bus'ness kids makin' movies of themselves

You know they don't give a fuck about anybody else



You know you go to Las Wages, Las Wages, go to Las Wages
