“Hey Raoul, what you doin’ tonight?”
“Oh, I’m gonna hook up the BetaMax to the microwave and watch some hot TV.”
“I’m goin’ to Palm Springs!”
“That’s great. You people have to work for a living, we don’t—here’s why!”
I got equipment and a van
And I want to start a band
With daddy’s money (yeah…sure)
I’ll pick out a shiny new guitar
And a girl to do PR
With daddy’s money (oh boy)
Listen, I got a house in Malibu
Sixteen tracks out by the pool
With daddy’s money (you know what)
We won’t practice every day
But we’ll make it anyway
With daddy’s money (sure we will)
Daddy’s money (woo!)
Daddy’s money
Daddy’s money
We’ll go to all our shows
In a Bentley or a Rolls
Daddy’s money (boy, it’ll be fun)
The crowd will bе up on their feet
Once we’vе bought up every seat
With daddy’s money
You can get what you want
It’s so easy (sure it is)
When your pockets are stuffed
With daddy’s money, daddy’s money
“Play it, Elliot, play!”
If our reviewer takes a poke
Then we’ll buy him off with (*sniff*)
Daddy’s money (sure we will, I want some too!)
We’ll hang out and make a scene
Get ourselves in magazines
Daddy’s money
You see, we’ll be on records and TV
They’ll name a lunchbox after me
With daddy’s money (oh boy, it’s that simple)
You see, it’s not how good you play
But how much you can pay
With daddy’s money (ha ha ha ha ha ha)
“Money, money, money, money, money, money, money,” etc
“Daddy, dear, for me, buy that record company”
Daddy’s money, woo!
“You always make a flash when you splash that stash of cash”
“Go on the road, he’ll pay the tour”
“We like to rock, he’s got the roll”
Daddy’s money, woo!
Daddy’s money, woo!
Daddy’s money, woo!
