The Money Song

Composed by John Gould, arranged by Fred Tomlinson, and written and sung by Eric Idle, The Money Song has the be their most enthusiastic song (with the possible exception of Sit on My Face).

I've got 90,000 pounds in my pajamas
I've got 40,000 French francs in my fridge
Ive got lots of lovely lira
Now the Deutschmark's getting dearer
And my dollar bills would buy the Brooklyn Bridge

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 ma-ake a splash!

There is nothing quite as wonderful as money!
There is nothng like a newly minted pound
Everyone must hanker for the butchness of a banker
It's accountancy that makes the world go round!
(round round round)

You can keep your Marxist ways,
But it's only just a phase
For it's money money money makes the world.. go... ROUND!
(money, money, money, money, money, money, money, MONEY)
