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
