Diamonds and pearls
Champagne and caviar
Cigars and girls
A private plane, a shiny car

Gold, silver and ivory
To have the Midas touch
Would it be enough for me
Can a man ever have enough
Luxury

The things I want
The things I need
One is a hunger
One is greed

Fox furs and mink
Sugar, stocks and shares
Gourmet food and drink
Up a marble flight of stairs

Suntans and shades
A yacht anchored in Saint Tropez
Butler, cook, housemaids
Can no one ever turn away
Luxury

The things I want
The things I need
One is a hunger
One is greed - tap up luxury
Luxury

The things I want - talking 'bout the things you want
The things I need - don't you worry 'bout the things you need
One is a hunger - oh
One is greed - live your life in luxury

The things I want - talking 'bout the things you want
The things I need - don't you worry 'bout the things you need
One is a hunger - help me
One is greed - learn to lap up luxury
