Sheltered Life

Never been to London,

never been to France

never was sorry

never learned to dance

Never walked down

to 42nd Street and Frairs

never smoked any

filtered air

Guess it's true

what all the people say

gonna have to mend

my old time ways, yeah

I guess it's true, guess,

I've lived a sheltered life

Never walked about

on the streets at night

never got into

an uptown fight

Never smoked a hookah,

never saw a rug

couldn't even squash

a beetle bug

Guess it's true

I'm gonna have to change my ways

guess it's true

what all the people say, yeah

I know it's true, guess,

I've lived a sheltered life

Never went to parties

in a chauffeured car

never wore a top hat

'cause I won't get far

Never learned to handle

all the things that I've seen

maybe I'll grow up

to be big and mean

Guess it's true

what all the people say

gonna have to change

my old fashioned ways, well

I guess it's true, guess,

I've lived a sheltered life
