Gray Flannel Suits Lyrics by Echolyn

Cowboy Poems Free

0

I'm pleased as punch with my new house in New Canaan, Connecticut
At night the streetlights shine off my other new things...
Like a lime-green Ford coupe, pink flamingoes
Martini glasses that shimmer all weekend
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia

See my fresh-painted homestead for me and my homemaking wife
She's the luckiest girl around because of what I provide...
Like hi-fis and a modern kitchen
We keep in the swim with all of our neighbors
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia

Working for 10 or 12 hours flat
I got a look-alike hat, and I don't care
Working for 10 or 12 hours to boot
I got a look-alike suit, and I don't care

Sloan Wilson said it best
"We're all men in gray flannel suits"
Looking like soldiers, we line up to climb aboard our daily trains...
Aspiring young workers with college diplomas
Your prospects are great and excellent for success excellent for success
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia, excellent, excellent
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia
But it's gray in suburbia, oh

Working for 10 or 12 hours flat
I got a look-alike hat, and I don't care
Working for 10 or 12 hours to boot
I got a look-alike suit, and I don't care

Working for 10 or 12 hours flat
I got a look-alike hat, and I don't care
Working for 10 or 12 hours to boot
I got a look-alike suit, and I don't care

Working for 10 or 12 hours to boot
I got a gray flannel suit, and I don't care
