[Verse 1]
Living in mansions
Buying diamonds the size of islands
Too big for her fingers
Everyone's digging for gold
But no one cares
Just as long as you're following the dress code

[Pre-Chorus]
That higher life
Comes with a price tag
One that exceeds your black AMEX limit
All the makeup, in the world can't hide
All the damage your marriage has done

[Chrous]
They're the people you try to be
They're the perfect family
Driving fast cars
Sipping glasses of iced tea
They're the people you try to be
They're the perfect family
Driving fast cars
Sipping glasses of iced tea

[Verse 2]
Masquerade and pool parties in the summer
Friends that may as well be for hire
Oh, that crystal always brighter than your smile
But at least you'll be covered in designer attire
[Pre-Chrous]
That higher life
Comes with a price tag
One that exceeds your black AMEX limit
All the makeup, in the world can't hide
All the damage your marriage has done

[Chrous]
They're the people you try to be
They're the perfect family
Driving fast cars
Sipping glasses of iced tea
They're the people you try to be
They're the perfect family
Driving fast cars
Sipping glasses of iced tea

[Bridge]
This perfect picture
Is advertised, as the white light in the sky
These pretty pictures are really overpriced
But they trick you in the fine print
This perfect picture is going for a high price
Going once
Going twice
Sold
[Chorus]
They're the people you try to be
They're the perfect family
Driving fast cars
Sipping glasses of iced tea
They're the people you try to be
They're the perfect family
Driving fast cars
Sipping glasses of iced tea
