Slummin' in Paradise

I'm a long way off but still around
Sitting on the couch, I'm watching you
And if I take my time, all the others give in
And you feel like you're standing in line
Oh, no, no, noI just know that you're worth the wait
It's of no concern
It's a risk I'd gladly take from time to timeSo don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall
Hose you down and dress you up real niceWith some brand new plans and a fancy car
And try to place your superstar
You can tell the story of your life
Without slummin' in paradiseI wonder how you feel, oh, do I?
Standing on the corner, how's your view?
From the other side, oh, Mr. Right
See, it's not a pretty sight aloneSo don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall
Hose you down and dress you up real niceWith some brand new plans and a fancy car
And try to place your superstar
You can tell the story of your life
Without slummin' in paradiseYou won't often see this letter
Handed over right away
I know the first time I found you wonderfulSo don't worry about yourself at all
I'll hang your work up on my wall
Hose you down and dress you up real niceWith some brand new plans and a fancy car
And try to place your superstar
You can tell the story of your life
Without slummin' in paradiseSlummin' in paradise
