High Cost Of Living Lyrics

She sits behind the window Patiently waiting for the eye Of every hungry passer-by

You simply have to have her She will be perfect with those shoes And you get paid on Monday too

I say she come a long way to get out here from where she came from Embroidered by a nine year old in South Vietnam Who can't afford a pair of shoes look how far she's come To see you, there sitting in a shop window

What we want's What we get And everybody's happy now but let's not forget The real price of

Splendid clothing Golden Rings Luxury and Sugar Free and all those lovely things The high cost of Living the life we love

I say he come a long way to get out here from where he came from The journey of a soccer ball quietly began Inside the hands of eight year olds in North Pakistan To see you, there sitting in a shop window

What we want's What we get And everybody's happy now but let's not forget The real price of

Splendid clothing Golden Rings Luxury and Sugar Free and all those lovely things The high cost of Living the life we love

She sits behind the window And all the sweat and noise and tears Seem like a million miles from here

What we want's What we get And everybody's happy now but let's not forget The high cost of Living the life we love.
