Hifi stereo, shiny and new,

No deposit needed,

Some dream come true,

Me and you. 

You've got a fast car,

Jaguar, shiny and gold,

These are you possessions now,

To have and hold,

Oh, so I'm told. 



Rich man, poor man, beggar and thief,

Each with our own fatal charm,

Big time, small time, Indian chief,

Don't you know?

Can't you see? 



Underneath all our silk and finery,

We are ragged, we are ragged,

Underneath all our pride and vanity,

We are ragged, we are ragged. 



We are ragged,

We are ragged 



Champagne, caviar, are all very well,

But when the party's over,

And they've all gone home,

And you're all alone. 



Rich man, poor man, beggar and thief,

Each with our own fatal charm,

Big time, small time, Indian chief,

Don't you know? Can't you see? 



Underneath all our silk and finery,

We are ragged, we are ragged,

Underneath all our pride and vanity,

We are ragged, we are ragged. 



So don't forget it,

We are just caught up in His life.





Underneath all our silk and finery,

We are ragged, we are ragged,

Underneath all our pride and vanity,

We are ragged, we are ragged.
