Keeping up with the joneses
keeps you keeping out
as long as you have the will to get along
and what you do for you is never wrong
so donīt you worry
donīt you worry
and I was never keen enough
as long as this time is still ticking on the clock
but when your pretty face wonīt be enough
then I wonīt you want you wonīt to want to
youīre wearing your corduroys and your diamond tooth
but you couldnīt relate to the girl with the silver spoon
the lies that youīre telling me are always true
itīs true
you made a fool of me for believing you
so keeping up with the joneses
keeps me hanging on
as long as I have the will to get along
and what I do for you is always wrong
but donīt you worry
donīt you worry
cuz I would never give it up
as long as this timeīs still ticking on the clock
but when your pretty face wonīt be enough
now wonīt you want to wonīt you want to
I love you the most when you are fast asleep
and whatever I do for you Iīm still the creep
I realize that Iīm not good enough
itīs tough for sensitive men in a world that donīt give a fuck
so keeping up with the joneses
keeps me hanging on
as long as I have the will to get along
and what you do for you is never wrong
but donīt you worry
donīt you worry
cuz you would never give it up
as long as the timeīs still ticking on the clock
but when your pretty face wonīt be enough
then I wonīt you want to wonīt you want to
now even your corduroys are faded through
and when youīre walking away
well I think itīs a better view
the lies that you tell yourself
are always true
so true
and you keep on talking till your face is blue
keeping up with the joneses
keeps you hanging on
as long as you have the will to get along
and what you do for you is never wrong
so donīt you worry
donīt you worry
and I would never give it up
as long as this timeīs still ticking on the clock
but when your pretty face wonīt be enough
now wonīt you want you wonīt you want you donīt you want you donīt you want to
