Keeping Up With the Joneses

Well the Joneses bought a new house we did too

Then a new car so we bought one too

'Cause we had to keep up with the Joneses

It was the usual thing to do

Then the Joneses started goin' out on the town

And that's when the Joneses started goin' down

But we had to keep up with the Joneses

So we started makin' the rounds

Then suddenly it happened their love fell apart

Now the Joneses aren't the same as before

And we couldn't let the Joneses get ahead of us

So now we're not us anymore

Now old Jones is gettin' ready for the trial

Guess we'll follow him in single file

'Cause we've got to keep up with the Joneses

Don't you wish that the Joneses would cry

Yes we had to keep up with the Joneses

Oh oh we wish that the Joneses would cry
