    Uptown girl,
    She's been living in her
    uptown world.

    I bet she never
    had a backstreet
    guy

    I bet her mama never
    told her
    why

    I'm gonna try
    for an


    uptown girl,
    She's been living in herWhitebread world
    As long as anyone with hotblood
    can
    And now she's lookin for a downtown man
    that's what

    I am

    And when she knows what
    She wants
    from her time

    And when she wakes up
    and makes up her mind

    She'll see I'm not so tough
    Just because I'm in love
    With an uptown girl

    When I was 10 I 'covered' a Dylan Thomas poem for a school poetry competition. I thought I was the bees knees until someone introduced me to plagiarism, it was so unfair!! Had the bloody prize in the bag too!
