Why do hes call their ships shes?
For comfort or for company?
He phone calls his lover by name
Then another wave
Goodbye let stones skim their seas
Who'll crack the pavement today?
If he's so won't I be a slave?
But she wants my lifeline
Remain there for all time
A servant who'd save
Mona property girl
Mona property world
Mona office blocks
Mona property girl
Mona property world
Mona office blocks
No managerial tax
No managerial talks
Tell me what shape is your soul?
A manger was built out of gold
Her every shape
Like a monetry gate
Standing strange laugh at your ways buy the rounds
Mona property girl
Mona property world
Mona office blocks
Mona property girl
Mona property world
Mona office blocks
No managerial tax
No managerial talks
If you must spend my money
Then you must spend it wisely
Mona property girl
Mona property world
Mona office blocks
Mona property girl
Mona property world
Mona office blocks
No managerial tax
No managerial talks
