As you wash your hair and bathe in Perrier 
As you hit the bank machine at night
Drinking money for tomorrow's flight
As you count your loss or bet on a black horse
Sit behind the wheel of a black Porsche 
Use your leather organizer with your name embossed 
The night is thick with frost It chills your heart

You got the world right where you want it 
Where do you want where do you want the world? 
You got the girl right where you want her 
But where do you want where do you want the girl?
 
I pulled up at your door And turned the key once more 
Took a calculator from my pocket 
Checked a picture of us in a locket 
I knew you were not in An alarm began to ring 
Punched a number on a cordless phone 
Made an offer on a Docklands condominium home 
Somewhere with no soul That won't remind me
 
You got the world right where you want it 
Where do you want where do you want the world? 
You got the girl right where you want her 
But where do you want where do you want the girl?

You got the world right where you want it 
Where do you want where do you want the world? 
You got the girl right where you want her 
But where do you want where do you want the girl?
