Love Is A Five Letter Word

[Verse 1]
I'll tell you what love is, oh yeah
And this is no lie
Love is a five-letter word, yes it is
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y
Love without finance, oh yeah
It's like a shirt without a tie, that's what it is
Love is a five-letter word, don't you know
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

[Bridge]
You can't live on kisses, oh no
Nor or a warm embrace, oh no
In case your charm misses
You gotta have cash to take its place
But oh

[Verse 2]
Sweet talk comes easy, oh yeah
But sometimes it'll get you by
Love is a five-letter word, everybody knows
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y
Just one more thing now
Let the poets write of love
It sounds good, I can't deny
Let them write about the stars up above
Let 'em write about the moon up in the sky
But I know what's happenin', oh yeah
Without it, you haven't got a thing
But if you got some money, honey
Let me tell you what you could do, baby
You could live just like a king
Oh-oh

[Bridge]
You can't live on kisses, oh no
Nor or a warm embrace, oh yeah
In case your charm misses
You gotta have cash to take its place
But oh

[Verse 3]
Sweet talk comes easy, yes, it does
Sometimes it'll get you by
But love is a five-letter word, don't you know
It's simply M-O-N-E-Y

[Outro]
And oh, M-O-N-E-Y, I'm talkin' about money, honey
I need love but I need money, oh yeah
I need money
Love is a many-splendored thing
But money is more, baby
And oh yeah, oh
