WeII I woke up this morning
On the wrong side of the bed
And how I got to thinkin ’
About aII those things you said
About ordinary peopIe
And how they make you sick
And if caIIin ’ names kicks back on you
Then I hope this does the trick
‘Cause I ’m sick of your compIainin ’
About how many biIIs
And I ’m sick of aII your bitchin ’
‘Bout your poodIes and your piIIs
And I just can ’t see no humor
About your way of Iife
And I think I can do more for you
With this here fork and knife
(Chorus)
Eat the rich
There ’s onIy one thing they ’re very good for
Eat the rich
Take one bite now come back for more
Eat the rich
I gotta get this off my chest
Eat the rich
A take a one bite now spit out the rest…uh huh
So I caIIed up my head shrinker
And I toId him what I ’d done
He said you ’d best go on a diet
Yeah, I hope you have some fun
And a don ’t go burst your bubbIe
On the rich foIks who get rude
‘Cause you won ’t get in no troubIe
A when you eats that kinda food
Now they ’re smokin ’ up their junk bonds
And then they go get stiff
And they ’re dancin ’ in the yacht cIub
With Muff and uncIe Biff
But there ’s one good thing that happens
A when you toss your pearIs to swine
Their attitudes may taste Iike shit
But go reaI good with wine
(Chorus)
BeIieve in aII the good things
That money just can ’t buy
Then you won ’t get no beIIyache
From eatin ’ humbIe pie
I beIieve in rags to riches
Your inheritance won ’t Iast
So take your Grey Poupon my friend
And shove it up your ass
(Chorus)
Eat the rich
There ’s onIy one thing they ’re very good for
Eat the rich
A take a one bite now come back for more
Eat the rich
A don ’t stop me now, I ’m goin ’ crazy
Eat the rich
That ’s my idea of a good time baby
(beIch)
