Listen boy, I'll tell you a thing I'll make you a career in the business I'm in I'll make you rich, I'll make you a toy I'll make you turn over into my little boy
Y'see I'm going somewhere I don't know what I'm gonna do when I get there I know money's a thing - your only inspiration And your only meaning You must think that all I do Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you You can fall when I will climb But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind
Mend that fight - oh listen to them Kickin' up a ball inside a jericho wall Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them If you ain't rich then you won't go to the ball
Having mercy and licking up love And moving through your ocean like I've never had enough Y'see you ain't all I want You're everything and more that I have ever hoped for You must think that all I do Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you You can fall when I will climb But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind
Mend that fight - oh listen to them Kickin' up a ball inside a jericho wall Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball
You won't go to the ball You won't go to the ball You won't go, you won't go You won't go to the ball
You must think that all I do Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you You can fall when I will climb But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind
Mend that fight - oh listen to them Kickin' up a ball outside a no. 10 wall Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball No more! You won't go to the ball You won't go to the ball You won't go, you won't go You won't go to the ball
Yeah, if you ain't got nothing You'll never go there
I tried to make you see I tell you I'd had enough Money was a thing, money was a thing Money was a thing that I believed in
