Because my blood is redder than your blood
And my sky is bluer than your sky
Because my garden’s neater, and my grass is greener
And I never bother with the other side
Because my Dad is so much richer than your dad
And my mother bakes a better apple pie
Because my teeth are whiter, and my arse is tighter:
That’s why I’m up here
And that’s why you’re down there...
Because my smile is so much smugger than your smile
And my sighs are more world-weary than your sighs
Because my rules are squarer, and my judgements, fairer
Just so long as everybody stays in line
Because my wit is so much sharper than your wit
And my car drinks much more petrol to the mile
Because my eyes are deeper, and my tears are sweeter:
That’s why I’m up here
And that’s why you’re down there...
Because my rope is longer than your rope
And my noose is so much tighter than your noose
Because my skin is whiter, and blacker, and browner
Just depending on which side I choose to show
Because my heart is so much darker than your heart
And my devil whispers louder in my ear
Because my dick is thicker, and longer, and quicker:
That’s why I’m up here
And that’s why you’re down there...
