Somebody Else's Money

We can buy that mansion on the hill

We'll fill it up until it's filled

We'll buy a big black Cadillac

And we'll keep an extra one in the back

We'll sit home just listening

To the sounds of the winds when they're breaking

And we can buy that diamond ring

And just about any other thing

With somebody else's money

We can buy you that flower garden

With every rose that's ever risen

With a blanket and a safety pin

We'll 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 else's money

We can tattoo nickels on our skin

We'll drain our veins and put honey in

We'll buy new fingers two times ten

We'll even put pennies in our chins

We'll buy a silver set of wings

Lay 'em on our backs for the winds

And we can buy that diamond ring

And just about any other thing

With somebody else's money

We'll crash in on the neighbors wedding

We'll steal the cake and go running

You'll head straight for the jewelry

And I'll steal the money like a lottery

We'll buy a set of legs just for walking

And another set of tongues for when we're 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 else's money

We can buy babies for the babies

We'll give them both big red ponies

They'll live in that mansion on the hill

That we'll keep on fillin' until it's filled

We'll watch the neighbors fatten up with greed

Watching us buying everything we don't need

I know they're listening

Through a telescope from across the street

Watching us fillin' 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 there's always something

That's so funny about spending

Somebody else's money
