Best song from one of the best albums of the 70's

a challenge for those who dare !

after i posted this song the other day ... a song i have love for nearly 45 years .. it made me remember that for all these years i really had no idea what in the heck they were saying in their final verse starting at the 1:40 mark ... so i made a conscious effort to listen to ,.. and figure out what they were saying ,, and take a few days to do it before i went and looked up the lyrics (which i had never done before)

well i tried my best and failed miserably but in all honesty i consider it almost impossible for anyone to decipher what he is saying in the final two lines starting at 1:47 

also i never knew what the song was about until i looked up the lyrics

Spoiler

I find my own fun, 
Sometimes for free 
I got to pay it to come lookin' for me 
Walkin' on Gucci
Wearin' Yves Saint Laurent 
Barely stay on 'cause I'm so God damn gaunt
