Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me
If they don't give me proper credit
They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light, that's right
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right, 'cause we are
Living in a material world
You know that we are living in a material world
Some boys romance, some boys slow dance
If they can't raise my interest then I
Some boys try and some boys lie but
Only boys that save their pennies
Make my rainy day, 'cause they are
Living in a material world
You know that we are living in a material world
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
Boys may come and boys may go
And that's all right you see
Experience has made me rich
And now they're after me, 'cause everybody's
Living in a material world
You know that we are living in a material world
Living in a material world
You know that we are living in a material world
A material, a material, a material, a material world
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
Living in a material world
