Marginal Middle Class — текст песни (Dean Friedman)

By dean friedman



I wanna have a big backyard.

I wanna have a mailbox and swings.

I wanna have a welcome mat and a porcelain cat,

And a doorbell that rings.

I wanna have a burglar alarm

To keep my family from harm,



I wanna be marginal middle class,

I wanna be respectable middle class,

I wanna hire a kid to cut the grass,

I wanna be marginal middle class.



I wanna join the local lodge.

I wanna have a two car garage.

I wanna do a high school play with the p.t.a.

I wanna have a new dodge.

I wanna have a steady job.

I wanna eat corn on the cob.



I wanna be marginal middle class,

I wanna be respectable middle class,

I wanna hedge my bets, I wanna cover my ass,

I wanna be marginal middle class.



I dont wanna have a lot of dough,

I just wanna be your average joe.

I wanna have just enough to see an occasional broadway show.



I wanna have a swimming pool.

I wanna have a couple of kids.

I wanna have a motorbike and a dog named mike

And two guinea pigs.

I wanna have a library card.

I dont wanna have to work too hard.



I wanna be "honey, can we eat out tonight ? " middle class,

I wanna be "daddy, roger punched me on the nose." middle class,

I wanna live right near the overpass,

I wanna be marginal middle class.

I wanna be marginal middle class.
