Happiness Can't Buy Money
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Up and down, the people wanna bounce to the funky sound
You got yo' radios blarin' and the deejays flarin' all over town
'Nuf respect is just what you gonna get when you jam and wind
But happiness can't buy money
On and on the party keeps rockin' on 'til the break of dawn
And the people next door must be wonderin' what it is we're on
If it makes you happy, you can party on 'til the end of time
But happiness can't buy money
So make my day-oh, oh, oh!
Don't be pass-oh, oh, oh!
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money...
So what's the deal?
Give me money...
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money....
So what's the deal?
Give me money....
Everybody agree, happiness is free, so whatcha gonna do
Say goodbye to the old clich's, say hello to the new
You can turn it on, whatever gets you goin'... It's a state of mind
But happiness can't buy money
So make my day'oh, oh, oh!
Don't be pass-oh, oh, oh!
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money...
So what's the deal?
Give me money...
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money...
So what's the deal?
Give me money...
Everybody, hold on, relax...
This is just like in the movies
And everyone will be a shooting star
And all will make lots of money...
Money, money, money, money, money, money!
Happiness can't buy money!
-oh, oh, oh!
-oh, oh, oh!
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
So what's the deal?
Give me money
Come on. . . Get real. . . Come on. . . Give me money!
Come on. . . Get real. . .
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
So what's the deal?
Happiness can't buy money!
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
So what's the deal?
Happiness can't buy money!
