Lyrics: Lap Of Luxury
Album: Under Wraps
Artist: Jethro Tull
 

The money won’t last forever —
Rent man called twice today.
I hope some day you’ll find me
In the lap of luxury.

Searched for a new apartment
But they don’t grow on trees.
Just want to lay my head
In the lap of luxury.

Stepped out on a new horizon —
Felt a new spring in my feet.
Found a job, it could set me up
Dangling in the lap of luxury.

And the gaffer is a man of substance —
Drives a jag and takes high tea.
Lives beyond the industrial wasteland,
Laughing in the lap of luxury.

I need money, now, to soothe my heart!

Buy me a datsun or toyota —
Get the tax man to agree
All expenses i can muster
From the lap of luxury.
