The best things in life are free
But you can keep em for the birds and bees;
Now give me money, (that s what I want) that s what I want,
(That s what I want) That s what I want (That s what I want) yeah,
That s what I want.
Your lovin give me such a thrill,
But your lovin don t pay my bills;
(refrain)
Money don t get everything it s true,
What it don t get I can t use;
(refrain)
Well, now give me money, (That s what I want)
A lotta money, (That s what I want)
Oh yeah, I wanna be free, (That s what I want)
Oh, lotta money, (That s what I want)
That s what I want (That s what I want) yeah,
That s what I want.
Well, now give me money, (That s what I want)
A lotta money, (That s what I want)
Wo, yeah, You need money (That s what I want)
Gimme money, (That s what I want)
That s what I want (That s what I want)
That s what I want.

Screw the rights of nature. Nature will have rights as soon as it gets
duties. The minute we see birds, trees, bugs, and squirrels picking up
litter, giving money to charity, and keeping an eye on our kids at the
park, we ll let them vote.
