Lyrics

Blinding rings, scattered gold, precious stones so magical
Their greedy eyes lit up like the night
The things they’ve saved, the Courvoisier, the ancient wine they bought in Spain
The socialites, I introduce by name

This necklace could buy a home
But they want it for themselves alone
Look at the man who built his home on the sidewalk
Their new Matisse painting fetches in the millions but they hate it
So I tell you if you’d like to get involved just give them a call

Welcome to the socialites
I introduce them by name
Welcome to the socialites
They’re hungry for you and you’re hungry for fame

Blinding rings, stupid things, necklaces
I cannot blame them for trying so hard
Three-car garage, menage-a-trois, country club, mint-julep love
Baby they’ve come so far

This necklace could buy a home
But they want it for themselves alone
Look at the man who built his home on the sidewalk
Their new Matisse painting fetches in the millions but they hate it
So I tell you if you’d like to get involved just give them a call

Welcome to the socialites
I introduce them by name
Welcome to the socialites
They’re hungry for you and you’re hungry for fame
