Well you've been floating like a temptress, yeah, around my house
And I heard the words you said as you called my name
Whispers of wisdom you just can't deny, the pain of progress you just can't hide
If you could only see the world as I see it now
I don't believe all the things I've heard but I'm hurtling through the air on a 50 tonne bird
And I can't look up I can only look down and I can see
Houses with swimming pools, houses with swimming pools
Houses with swimming pools, you know they got it all and a swimming pool
Well you're always wanting something, I guess that's something to do
And you seem to have everything but babe that's not enough for you
one day you're gonna wake up and it'll be gone
One day you're gonna find out that they were to strong
If you'd only known then what you don't know now
Cause I can see everything from here - your place, my place, the whole schmeer
I can't look up but I can see all around and I can see
Houses with swimming pools, houses with swimming pools
Houses with swimming pools, you know they got it all and a swimming pool
Oh yeah, now all I want to be is cool and when I win the big one you can swim in my pool
Believe me that's as good as it gets, we all get rich then we all get wet
Yes I can see all those shining j**els
Houses with swimming pools, houses with swimming pools
Houses with swimming pools, you know they got it all and a swimming pool
