You live in a highriseNo birds or butterfliesLive beyond your meansLike you always dreamedIn a room painted gallery whiteIsn't it nice?This 21st century lifeCool as concreteNaked on the balconySleepless in the pale moonlightYou only go out at nightIsn't it niceIn your highriseLike a page from a magazineThat's come to lifeIn your highriseIsn't it niceLiving your best lifeYou're never satisfiedFrom the penthouse floorA soft-core voyeurUndress me with your eyesWhat's not to love?Up in the skyFlying first-classBetween cities made of glassYour love affair with vanitySo easy to exciteIsn't it niceIn your highriseLike a page from a magazineThat's come to lifeIsn't it niceIn your highriseIsn't it nice
