Jackie Lomax

The Eagle Laughs At You

Jump inside your limousine

Run right round the world

Flash a hundred notes of green

Get yourself a girl

But all the time you're standing there

Looking like you're talking

The eagle laughs at you

Just barely walking

Run around your office block tell me what to do

Regulating life by clock, that's the life for you

But all the time you're standing there

Looking like you're talking

The eagle laughs at you

Just barely walking

Hey, hey, hey, there's nobody who has got enough money

To pay the entrance fee to paradise

And if you haven't got enough

Then you'll find it pretty rough

After living your luxurious life

Run around your mansion with a hundred servants clean

You will never do without a million dollar dream

But all the time you're standing there

Looking like you're talking

The eagle laughs at you

Just barely walking

You know, the eagle laughs at you

Just barely walking

The eagle laughs at you

Barely walking
