poor little rich girl

Performed featuring Raissa Produced by Bruce Lampcov, 1998 A cover of Noel Coward's song Featured on The 20th Century Blues, an album to raise fund for Red Hot Aids Organization

Poor little rich girl, you're urban wish girl, better beware
Laughing at danger, virtual stranger, better take care
The life you lead sets all your nerves a-jangle
Your love affairs are in hopeless tangle
Thought you're a child, dear, your life's a wild typhoon

In lives of leisure, the craze for pleasure, steadily grows
Cocktails and laughter, but what comes after? Nobody knows

You're weaving love into a magic pattern
You crawl from room to room
Poor little rich girl, don't drop a stitch too soon

You're only a baby
You're lonely and maybe
Someday soon you'll know

By dancing much faster
You're chancing disaster
Time alone will show

Poor little rich girl, you're urban wish girl, better beware
Laughing at danger, virtual stranger, better take care

You're weaving love into a magic pattern
You crawl from room to room
Poor little rich girl, don't drop a stitch too soon
