Living At The Canterbury / Party Page

Okay living in the city
Whores outside a posing
Traffic noise a lullaby
Skyscrapers better than the blue skies
We can do what we want
We can say what we please
We can be who we want
Being poor’s okay by me
Proud I don’t have no T. V
Living at the Canterbury
(My friends think I’m a fool)
Living at the Canterbury
I guess it’s pretty cool
Living at the Canterbury
Fighting off the roaches
Like being in a dormitory
Till rental due approaches
Spent it all on booze
I’m no fool with credit cards
It’s better not to think
Sometimes little I like to think
See me pose, having so much fun
Champagne glass in my hand
My put on smile on my painted face
I show no trace of boredom
See me laugh at your jokes
Your gossiping lips
You look so divine, so divine
In your Fiorucci dress
Your party is finesse
Charming, darling
Party pose, let’s pretend
Jet set, Rive Gauche
Party pose, quite dull
Moet Chandon, Andy Warhol
See me fit the stylish crowd
Hear the stories, the worldly wise
Exaggerate: we’ve been around
We’ve seen it all, we’re so profound
See my friends walk in the door
Eat caviar, drink, ash the floor
Party crash patrol has come
Party pose has just begun
Party pose, let’s pretend
Jet set, Rive Gauche
Party pose, quite dull
Moet Chandon, Andy Warhol
See me pose, having so much fun
Champagne glass in my hand
My put on smile on my painted face
I show no trace of boredom
See me laugh at your jokes
Your gossiping lips
You look so divine
In your Fiorucci dress
Your party is finesse
Charming, darling
