Money Song Lyrics


Eric Idle Money Song


Eric Idle:
I've got ninety thousand pounds in my pyjamas.
I've got forty thousand French francs in my fridge.
I've got lots of lovely lire.
Now the Deutschmark's getting dearer,
And my dollar bills would buy the Brooklyn Bridge.

Eric Idle and CHORUS:
There is nothing quite as wonderful as money.
There is nothing quite as beautiful as cash.
Some people say it's folly,
But I'd rather have the lolly.
With money you can make a splash.

Eric Idle:
There is nothing quite as wonderful as money.

CHORUS:
...Money, money, money, money.

Eric Idle:
There is nothing like a newly minted pound.

CHORUS:
...Money, money, money, money.

Eric Idle and CHORUS:
Everyone must hanker
For the butchness of a banker.
It's accountancy that makes the world go 'round.

CHORUS:
'Round, 'round, 'round.

Eric Idle:
You can keep your Marxist ways,
For it's only just a phase,
For it's money, money, money makes the world go 'round.

CHORUS:
...Money, money, money, money, money, money, money,
money, moneeeeey!
