Well now everything is rosy

And the money's so well spent

This kind of education

Is worth every cent

When your momma pays the tuition

And your dadddy pays the rent

You could learn a lot in college

Although you never went



Now you ain't that funny

And you ain't that smart

But you become a model student

When you step up to the bar



They're drinking their life away

At the paradise café

Talking with nothing to say

At the paradise café

Daddy's money spends real good

And he's spent a lot today

At the paradise café



The neon pink flamingo

Shines down on one and all

Lights up the drunken schoolgirl

As she bounces of the wall

To the slurred shouts of college boys

Who'll soon be at the wheel

It's an awful lot to deal with

Just to get a decent meal



Now you ain't that funny

And you ain't that smart

But you become a model student

When you step up to the bar



They're drinking their life away

At the paradise café

Talking with nothing to say

At the paradise café

Daddy's money spends real good

And he's spent a lot today

At the paradise caf
