I don’t care too much for money
Money can’t buy me love
That ain’t workin’ that’s the way you do it
Get your money for nothin’ get your chicks for free
Money, it’s a hit
Don’t give me that do goody good bullshit
I’m in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet
We turn it over in our hands and
Tilt the face into the light
It shines so bright it mesmerises
It’s Ju-Ju money
Funny money
Magic money
Money don’t get everything, it’s true,
But what it don’t get I can’t use.
I need 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.
(That’s what I want. That’s what I want.)
Candy on the beach, there’s nothing better
But I like candy when it’s wrapped in a sweater
Some day soon I’ll make you mine
Then I’ll have candy all the time
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
I want candy
The Candy Man makes everything he bakes satisfying and delicious
Now you talk about your childhood wishes, you can even eat the dishes
When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires will come to you
Star baby
Flashy little shiny little two timin’ mama singin’
Star baby
Shiny little flashy little lovin’ machine.
Tar baby, my tar baby
It maybe, was meant to be
When I look at you
I can’t believe my eyes
And with your magic
I think you just might charm the birds out of the skies
Tar baby, tar baby, tar baby
Came good out of grief
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you
There’ll be bluebirds over
The White Cliffs of Dover someday.
A-well-a don’t you know about the bird?
Well, everybody knows that the bird is a word
You tell me that you’ve heard every sound there is
And your bird can swing
But you can’t hear me, you can’t hear me
It took me by surprise I must say
When I found out yesterday
Ooo I heard it through the grapevine
Not much longer would you be mine
Ooo I heard it through the grapevine
And I’m just about to lose my mind
Honey, honey yeah
Honey…sugar,sugar, you can be my candy,girl!
Lips like sugar
Sugar kisses
She knows what she knows
I know what she’s thinking
Sugar kisses
Sugar kisses
Just when you think she’s yours
She’s flown to other shores
To laugh at how you break
And melt into this lake
Killing me softly, with your love…
What a dream I had,
Pressed in organdy,
Clothed in crinoline of smoky burgundy,
Softer than the rain…
