Driving with your handbrake on
But you can't smell the burnin'
Collidin' with oblivion
Just to keep heads turnin'

Man, I want some pretty cash
It's ugly, all that saving
'Cause we could get so fabulous
When we're out Rolex raving, no cravin'

Oh, we're way beyond our means
To buy these crazy things
Oh, we're wastin' our whole lives
In a struggle to survive

Get yourself in debt for me
The grass don't get no greener
Have it all so far upfront
It doesn't take a dreamer, a beamer

Oh, we're way beyond our means
We love these spendin' sprees
Oh, we're wastin' all our time
On some production line

We're diving down the rubbish chute
We'll be okay if we uproot
'Cause I don't need no heavy family
Holding me

Oh, we're way beyond our means
To buy these crazy things
Oh, we're makin' them Swiss Francs
To burst their private banks

Oh, we're way beyond our means
We love these spendin' sprees
Oh, we're wastin' our whole lives
In a struggle to survive
