Slummin' in Paradise

I'm a long way off

But I'm still around
Sitting on the couch
I'm watching you

And if I take my time

All the others give in

You still feel like you're standing in line

I just know that you're worth the wait
It's of no concern
It's a risk I'd gladly take

From time to time

Don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall

Hose you down and dress you up real nice

With some brand new plans and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar

'Cause you can tell the story of your life

Without slummin' in paradise

I wonder how you feel

Or do I

Standing on the corner
How's your view

From the other side

Mr Right

Its not a pretty sight alone

Don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall

Hose you down and dress you up real nice

With some brand new plans and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar

'Cause you can tell the story of your life

Without slummin' in paradise

You won't often see this letter

Handed over right away

I know the first time I found you wonderful

Don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall

Hose you down and dress you up real nice

With some brand new plans and a fancy car
Try to place your superstar
'Cause you can tell the story of your life

Without slummin' in paradise
