Rufus Wainwright - The Money Song Lyrics
If I should ever run into a lot of moneyTell me would I move to new york city?If I had an apartment with a view of that city,Tell me would I see the stars above me?If I had a room at the top of the waldorf astoriaTell me would I still love ya?If I was blinded by,The sun through french windowsWould I watch your pose before them?The queen strolls down her hallMissing the rubensHer shoes sound soft on the long rug from yemenShe is plainly dressed excluding the diamond ringBrought back from a long trip to thailandAnd rumor has it that she would rather be a farmerElizabeth would you toss off the tiara?No more ____No more kentucky derbyNow, mutts instead of corgisMy loveSince Ill never have the chance to become the king of countryAnd common wealthMy loveIf your heart was made of goldWould I pluck it outAnd melt it downAnd be an americanAnd weld a crown?A song like this today can sound pretty sillyThe timings offThe set it set in simplicityToday Im niceAnd today Im not very wealthyDont underestimate moneyMy loveMy loveMy love
