While the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightWhile the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightAfter closing time
At the guernsey fair
I detect the el supremo
From the room at the top of the stairsWell I've been around the world
And I've been in the Washington Zoo
And in all my travels as the facts unravel
I've found this to be true
While the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightWhile the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightThey got the house on the corner
With the rug inside
They got the booze they need
All that money can buyThey got the shapely bodys
They got the Steely Dan T-Shirt
And for the coup-de-gras
They? re outrageous
Honey, let the girl you
While the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightWhile the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightShowbiz kids making movies of themselves
You know they don? t give a fuck about anybody else
You know you gonnaWhile the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at nightWhile the poor people sleepin'
With the shade on the light
While the poor people sleepin'
All the stars come out at night
