Marginal Middle Class Sözleri

by Dean Friedman

I wanna have a big backyard.

I wanna have a mailbox and swings.

I wanna have a welcome mat and a porcelain cat,

And a doorbell that rings.

I wanna have a burglar alarm

To keep my family from harm,

I wanna be Marginal Middle Class,

I wanna be Respectable Middle Class,

I wanna hire a kid to cut the grass,

I wanna be Marginal Middle Class.

I wanna join the local lodge.

I wanna have a two car garage.

I wanna do a high school play with the P.T.A.

I wanna have a new Dodge.

I wanna have a steady job.

I wanna eat corn on the cob.

I wanna be Marginal Middle Class,

I wanna be Respectable Middle Class,

I wanna hedge my bets, I wanna cover my ass,

I wanna be Marginal Middle Class.

I don't wanna have a lot of dough,

I just wanna be your average Joe.

I wanna have just enough to see an occasional Broadway show.

I wanna have a swimming pool.

I wanna have a couple of kids.

I wanna have a motorbike and a dog named Mike

And two guinea pigs.

I wanna have a library card.

I don't wanna have to work too hard.

I wanna be "Honey, can we eat out tonight ?" Middle Class,

I wanna be "Daddy, Roger punched me on the nose." Middle Class,

I wanna live right near the overpass,

I wanna be Marginal Middle Class.

I wanna be Marginal Middle Class.
