Wonderful World

Private yacht parties like campfires at night
Manicured lawns, malls filled with delights
If it weren't for the outside, it would be a wonderful world

Fine little restaurants, with bookings for two
Ralph Lauren polos, black dresses, cute shoes
What a glimmering pageant to show off our wonderful world

So hold onto your right to be the privileged few
With so much to buy and so little to do
Won a game where first prize is a life with no use
But to preen like a beautiful bird

Maids clean the houses; we lunch in the shade
Play catch with a football some third world kid made
The earth's just a factory that makes us a wonderful world

So sit on the harbor, and sip chardonnay
Drink til' your conscience has nothing to say
The statue of Reagan will smile
It's a wonderful world.
