Oh but I don't mind being bored.
Oh but I don't mind being poor.
Oh what a feet life
Sharing Michael with you
Oh what a neat life
Sharing my love with you

Sharing Milo with you
Sharing my love with you
She's got everything.
She's got your eyes.
She's got your eyes
She's got my nose
Oh, and I can't hide
Just watching it grow
She's got your eyes
She's got my nose
Oh, and I get high
Just watching her grow
We always dreamed we'd make a lot of money, oh but I don't mind it anymore
We always dreamed we'd make a lot of money, oh but I don't mind being poor
We always dreamed we'd make a lot of money
Oh, but I don't mind it anymore.
We always dreamed we'd make a lot of money
Oh, but I don't mind being poor.
We're living such a sweet life, oh what a delight
We're living such a sweet life, oh what a neat life
Whoa, and I can't hide
Just watching it grow.
Whoa, and I get high
Just watching it grow.
