Cost of Living (Remastered)
Well the cost of living
Depends on what you're giving
In terms of emotional pain
And as time goes by
The price is getting higher
And your life's slipping down the drain
Well you feel the need
For a heart that'll bleed
When you feed it your sorrowful tale
But your chosen lover
Says her valuable compassion
Is unfortunately not for sale
That's the cost of living (the cost of living)
The cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Oh it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
You make a real good deal
On sex appeal
And for a while your life is feeling nice
Ah but come the day
When you have to pay
She's repossessed cos you cannot meet the price
Going up going up going up going up
The price is rising all the time
It seems your life is getting cheaper
But your debt is getting deeper
You get the punishment
Oh but where's the crime?
It's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Oh it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Going up going up going up going up
The price is rising all the time
Your life gets cheaper
But the debt is getting deeper
It's playing havoc with your state of mind
Oh and it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
The cost of living (the cost of living)
It's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Oh and it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
It's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
The cost of living (the cost of living)
The cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Depends on what you're giving
In terms of emotional pain
And as time goes by
The price is getting higher
And your life's slipping down the drain
Well you feel the need
For a heart that'll bleed
When you feed it your sorrowful tale
But your chosen lover
Says her valuable compassion
Is unfortunately not for sale
That's the cost of living (the cost of living)
The cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Oh it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
You make a real good deal
On sex appeal
And for a while your life is feeling nice
Ah but come the day
When you have to pay
She's repossessed cos you cannot meet the price
Going up going up going up going up
The price is rising all the time
It seems your life is getting cheaper
But your debt is getting deeper
You get the punishment
Oh but where's the crime?
It's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Oh it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Going up going up going up going up
The price is rising all the time
Your life gets cheaper
But the debt is getting deeper
It's playing havoc with your state of mind
Oh and it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
That's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
The cost of living (the cost of living)
It's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
Oh and it's the cost of living (the cost of living)
It's the cost of living (that's the cost of living)
The cost of living (the cost of living)
The cost of living (that's the cost of living)
