Boy, it's tough
Getting on in the world
When the sun doesn't shine
And a boy needs a girl
It's about getting out of a rut
You need luck
But you're stuck
And you don't know how
Don't have to be
A big bucks Hollywood star
Don't have to drive
A super car to get far
Don't have to live
A life of power and wealth
Don't have to be
Beautiful but it helps
Don't have to buy
A house in Beverly Hills
Don't have to have
Your daddy paying the bills
Don't have to live
A life of power and wealth
Don't have to be
Beautiful but it helps
You need more than a big blank cheque to be a lover or
A Gulfstream jet to fly you door to door
Somewhere chic on another shore
You need more, you need more, you need more
You need more, you need more, you need more, you need love
Too much of anything
Is never enough
Too much of everything
Is never enough
Boy, it's tough
Getting on in the world
When the sun doesn't shine
And a boy needs a girl
It's about getting out of a rut
You need luck
Boy, you're stuck
And you don't know how
Don't have to be
A big bucks Hollywood star
Don't have to drive
A super car to get far
Don't have to wear
A smile much colder than ice
Don't have to be
Beautiful but it's nice
You need more than
The Gerhard Richter hanging on your wall
A chauffeur-driven limousine on call
To drive your wife and lover to a white tie ball
You need more, you need more, you need more
You need more, you need love
I believe
That we can achieve
The love that we need
I believe
Call me naive
That love is for free
Don't have to be
A big bucks Hollywood star
Don't have to drive
A super car to get far
Don't have to live
A life of power and wealth
Don't have to be
Beautiful but it helps
Beautiful but it helps
Beautiful but it helps
You need more
You need love
You need love
You need love
Too much of anything is never enough
Too much of everything is never enough
Well it’s tough getting on in the world
When the sun doesn’t shine
And a boy needs a girl
It’s about getting out of a rut
You need luck but you’re stuck
And you don’t know how
(Don’t have to be)
A big bucks Hollywood star
(Don’t have to drive)
A super car to get far
(Don’t have to wear)
A smile much colder than ice
(Don’t have to be)
Beautiful, but it’s nice
You need more
Than the Gerhard Richter hanging on your wall
A chauffeur driven limousine encore
To drive your wife and lover to a whiter ball
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need love
I believe that we can achieve the love that we need
I believe, call me naive, but love is for free
(Don’t have to be)
A big bucks Hollywood star
(Don’t have to drive)
A super car to get far
(Don’t have to live)
A life of power and wealth
(Don’t have to be)
Beautiful but it helps
Beautiful but it helps
Beautiful but it helps
