VERSE 1
I said beautiful people, they got a Robert Palmer T-shirt in their travel bag
Beautiful people, they've got a price upon their head
I said beautiful people, have got some friends who just flew in from L.A. yeah
Beautiful people, they haven't really much to say.
I said people, they just want to take you
People, they just want to make you
People, they just want to bring you down, they just want to take you down
VERSE 2
I said beautiful people, they ride two hundred dollar push-bikes in the park
Beautiful People, they won't admit it but they make love in the dark
Beautiful people, snap frozen potted palms in the corner of the living room
Beautiful people, the art deco sonic boom
CHORUS
Beautiful people, you know they're going out tonight to get their Bombay rocks off
Beautiful people, they've got Kerouac condition, got a cocaine cough
Beautiful people, studio 54 is the only place to dance
Beautiful People, you know the garden's full of furniture the house is full of plants
CHORUS x 2
