Translation
Bilingual
People like us never need to be told
Savoir faire and a tan get you by
Don Perignon, a Bay Mare from a roan
This we know from the time we're knee high
Girls wear pearls and a long white dress
Gentlemen wear ascots from J. Press
People like us go for loafers or ducks
Cotton madras and khaki are key
But renting a stable and flashing a label
Seems terribly tacky to me
Contact sports are fine for jocks
We sit watching with Bloodies on the rocks
ย
Fail at Yale, disgrace St. Paul
Once you're out, it's who you know, that's all
People like us have been known to occasionally
Dibble dabble in lust
Tough luck for l'amour, a sound marriage is founded
On merging two family trusts
Blue blood breeding of genes begat
Hairless bodies that never, ever sweat
It's all a tailored world custom-made to last
One might say the future really is the past
For people like us, people like us, people like us
People like us, people like us
Don't you wish you were people like us?
