King Money

Not what you are but what you've earned
Where jack-queen-king money's concerned
A friend in need is a friend in debt
That kind of friend king money can forget

May those that are full get struck dumb
When they tell the hungry of the good times to come
More money than sense in their defense
And cheaper jokes at our expense

If your king is money
Then I feel sorry for you
And if you think that it's funny
Maybe you do, maybe you do

King money
King money
King money

The Midas touch doesn't mean that much
Till you're crippled with greed using gold as a crutch
Or half a man in half a town
Or half a kingdom for half a crown

No geldt-in-my-pelt-jack, no cash in my shack
Tell me the things that you think that I lack
What kind of price are you willing to pay
For a holiday from the royal tourniquet

If your king is money
Then I feel sorry for you
And if you think that it's funny
Maybe you do, maybe you do

King money
King money
King money

Standing by the Xerox machine
I want to duplicate some money
Build a fortune up in black and white
But I'll need a master copy

You're gonna give your love to me
Shake an apple off the apple tree
When she moves it's poetry
Come to me now, one, two, three

Plan the perfect double murder
Maybe win the pools
When I get some money, honey
I'll be knee high in consumer durables

Adorables
