Like trying to knock down pins with marbles in my hand
She wouldn't take a high from me, the average man
Funny what money can do to people
Well, she had a lot that had swapped her for evil
Trying to get on women who rate themselves so high
Shouldn't be my subject but I felt like I should try
Funny what drink can do for soldiers
Well, she must be into men who're a little bit older
Funny how it goes
How money steals the show
And all the diamonds twinkle as she danced
So what's it got for me?
Hung over in my tree
I saw the sun shine brightly from her
Trying to get her dancing was not an easy job
She made out like Houdini when I said, "Do you bop?"
Funny what rhythm does, it kills me
Like champagne, women only seem to spill me
Trying to get the picture, I settled down to a drink
When up came Cinderella, so what was I to think?
Funny how these shoes fit a dragon
Well, she's like the shocks that you get in Manhattan
Funny how it goes
How money steals the show
And all the diamonds twinkle as she danced
So what's it got for me?
Hung over in my tree
I saw the sun shine brightly from her
