Lyrics

Counting the money
as you sit back in your chair
What does it feel like
to pretend you?re a millionairre

If you?re goin? to the party,
well I?ve got some good advice
You don?t have to pay attention,
you just have to pay the price

It?s a black tie affair,
The creme of society will be there
It?s a special invitation...
Better dress for the occasion...
It?s a black tie affair

All the big wheels
and their big deals goin? down
Now who?s that lady?
She?s the talk of the town
It?s a business situation,
If you bring along a check
You can build your reputation,
You can buy some respect

It?s a black tie affair,
The creme of society will be there
It?s a special invitation...
Better dress for the occasion...
It?s a black tie affair...
I see you climbing up the stairs
You can do anything that you want to,
Anytime you can afford to...


When opportunity
comes knocking at your door ...
It?s a chance to meet a lot of names
you?ve never met before,
And pretty soon you?ll find your way to the top
Just remember who you?re stepping on
before it?s too late to stop!

It?s a black tie affair,
The creme of society will be there
It?s a special invitation...
Better dress for the occasion...
It?s a black tie affair...
I see you climbing up the stairs
Everybody says they love you,
But nobody can afford to...
