text: As I went out one evenin down Columbus Avenue
  All the sushi bars were shuttered, dark cantinas too
  And I stood there in the darkness,as an empty cab rolled by
  Then all at once I heard the sound of yuppies in the sky
  Then the herd came down Columbus, for as far as I could see
  All the men were wearing Polo, and the women wore Esprit
  Each yuppie had a walk-man and as each one passed me by
  I saw their sad expressions and I heard their mournful cry
  Chorus:
  Condos for sale, condos to buy, yuppies in the sky
  Each one was wearing running shoes upon the ghostly deck
  And each one had a cotton sweater wrapped around the neck
  They all held out their credit cards and tried in vain to buy
  But not a store was open to the yuppies in the sky
  Ive seen them in commercials sailin boats and playin ball
  Pourin beer for one another cryin, Why not have it all?
  Now I saw the ghostly progress as the winds around me blew
  Till I, I felt the urge to purchase a BMW
  All the salad bars were empty, all the Quiche Lorraine was gone
  I heard the yuppies crying as they vanished in the dawn
  Calling brand names to each other, as they faded from my view
  Theyll be networking forever down Columbus Avenue
