10cc "Les Nouveaux Riches" lyrics

Les Nouveaux Riches

I could see that the sun it was deadlyShe's putting her hand in the fireHer velvety skin it was cookingLily white, lily white, lily white turning to raspberryBut when she slips in between the sheets tonightThe memory will linger and burnAnd when she look at her face in the mirrorWhat a terrible sightLily white turning to raspberry(When it burns you rub on the lotionIf it stings you sit in the ocean, oh no)Les nouveaux riches, when theyTres fatigue they fly, off to the sunshineThey set jet away, they don'tGet a kick, they don't get a buzz manThey, talk in circles, they not for us ohLes nouveaux riches, when theyTres fatigue they fly, off to the oceanThey hot foot away, they don'tGet a buzz, they don't get a kickMan they, talk in circlesThey must be thick, a say tick demA tick tick tick-aI could see that the guys were a hassleShe tried to handle them coolBut her interbreeding was showingTumbling out on the banks of the oldSwimming pool, ooh ooh ooh oohSo she buried her fears in a bottleThe juices beginning to flowAnd her stiff upper lip it was tremblingTripping her up, her words were beginning to rollHush your mouth, you can't fool the nativesTelegraph, they're going to relay it, oh noLes nouveaux riches, when theyTres fatigue they fly, off to the sunshineThey set jet away, they don'tGet a kick, they don't get a buzz manThey, talk in circles, they not for us ohLes nouveaux riches, when theyTres fatigue they fly, off to the oceanThey hot foot away, they don'tGet a buzz, they don't get a kickMan they, talk in circlesThey must be thick, a say tick demA tick tick tick-aI remember the tears in her eyesShe tried to hide them awayBut her time it was going too quicklyJust another few days, she'll soon be flying awayBut her memory will stay here foreverA time she will never forgetAll the sun and the sand and the waterSuch a beautiful place, she never got her feet wetNo way, she keeping a cool headShe get a tan, from under the sun bed, oh noLes nouveaux riches, when theyTres fatigue they fly, off to the sunshineThey set jet away, they don'tGet a kick, they don't get a buzz manThey, talk in circles, they not for us ohLes nouveaux riches, when theyTres fatigue they fly, off to the oceanThey hot foot away, they don'tGet a buzz, they don't get a kickMan they, talk in circlesThey must be thick, a say tick demA tick tick tick-a
