Success
Sigue Sigue Sputnik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm your God I've just arrived
A beatbox Jesus dancing jive
Venus Mars and Saturn five
A billion TV stars alive

Champagne champagne and model girls
Credit cards let's buy the world
Visa club and Gold Am X
Caroline and Princess Steph

Sex fun success
Sex fun success
Luxury - give it me
Nothing more and nothing less
Than success

Dallas dollars limousines
Debutantes and dynasty
Here's a dream that money buys
Late to bed and late to rise

Luxury - give it me
- Get it, I got it
Fantasy and ecstasy
- Get it, I got it
Grab a piece of that golden fleece
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
On the beach with the nouveau riche
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
On the beach with a Rolls Royce each
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Yeah-Yeah-Yeah
Success

Roll X Rolls Royce Romeo
Say hello to Savile Row




Take a cheque from Coutts & Co.
Limousines - all systems go

@glamnesianouveaux2039

I remember in 1988 when Success was released I was so surprised Sigue Sigue Sputnik worked with SAW for this track but it worked! And SAW needed some edge injection by 1988! From 1984 to 1987 SAW had edge and then they lost it so Sigue Sigue Sputnik was a bit of cool pop track edge cred for them!
