I made a fortune Oh won't somebody stop me Oh won't somebody drop me where I came in I could buy anything Even birds on the wing Nobody knows who I am Till today I was a wealthy man I had everything a human can Now it doesn't mean a thing You can have everything today Take it away, take it away Take it away First it was hundreds Then it turned into thousands And it won't stop at millions, I know so well You can make just enough Then the going gets tough Now you can see for yourself Now you can take it So you don't have to make it Don't pretend you don't need it, I know that you do If you wake up and scream In a tinderbox dream Please don't return it to me
