Got a pocket full of dreams and a dime to my name Chasing paper planes while playing your games Coins in my hand but they slip like sand Trying to hold on but they don’t understand Money money it’s a wild little thing Makes you dance makes you cry makes your soul wanna sing Round and round like a record it spins Money money where do we begin I met a man on the corner said he had it all A suit so sharp and a house stories tall But his eyes told a story of a heart gone dry Money’s a mirage in the summer skies Money money it’s a wild little thing Makes you dance makes you cry makes your soul wanna sing Round and round like a record it spins Money money where do we begin They say it can buy you the world and a throne But it won’t keep you warm when you’re all alone It’s a shiny illusion a fleeting disguise Chasing it blind you’ll forget your life So I’ll take my dime and a melody true A little bit of soul and a sky so blue Let the paper fade let the coins roll away I’ve got riches in love at the end of the day
