We can buy that mansion on the hill,
WeŽll fill it up until itŽs filled.
WeŽll buy a big black Cadillac
And weŽll keep an extra one in the back.
WeŽll sit home just listening
To the sounds of the winds when theyŽre breaking
And we can buy that diamond ring
And just about any other thing
With somebody elseŽs money.
We can buy you that flower garden
With every rose thatŽs ever risen.
With a blanket and a safety pin
WeŽll keep away all the boogie men.
And we can buy you that swing
Swing through the skies openings
And we can buy that diamond ring
And just about any other thing
With somebody elseŽs money.
We can tattoo nickels on our skin,
WeŽll drain our veins and put honey in.
WeŽll buy new fingers two times ten,
WeŽll even put pennies in our chins.
WeŽll buy a silver set of wings,
Lay Žem on our backs for the winds
And we can buy that diamond ring
And just about any other thing
With somebody elseŽs money.
WeŽll crash in on the neighbors wedding,
WeŽll steal the cake and go running.
YouŽll head straight for the jewelry
And IŽll steal the money like a lottery.
WeŽll buy a set of legs just for walking,
And another set of tongues for when weŽre small talking,
Another set of lips for being obscene
And another set of heads for Halloween.
And we can buy you that swing
To swing through the skies openings.
We can buy that diamond ring,
Just about any other thing,
With somebody elseŽs money.
We can buy babies for the babies,
WeŽll give them both big red ponies.
TheyŽll live in that mansion on the hill
That weŽll keep on fillinŽ until itŽs filled.
WeŽll watch the neighbors fatten up with greed
Watching us buying everything we donŽt need
I know theyŽre listening
Through a telescope from across the street
Watching us fillinŽ up the bathtubs with sweets
Money, money, money.
Money on the floor put money in the beds
Put money in the drains
Money coming out of our heads,
Money, money, money.
We can kill many a dirty man
Work by the church when they bring us in.
We can buy anything
Because thereŽs always something
ThatŽs so funny about spending
Somebody elseŽs money.
