LYRICS

Intro
They tell me money talks
Well I’ve plenty talking to do
They tell me cash corrupts
Yeah I could handle that too …

Verse 1
But they’ve mortgaged my dreams
And my soul has been sold
Reach deep in your pockets
Fill my beggarman’s bowl
Fill up my bowl, fill it with gold

Chorus
Oh, when I get rich
When I get rich
I’ll do what I will
Just send me the bill
Oh, when I get rich
Yeah, when I get rich

Verse 2
Hey, I’ve got my foot in the door
And my hand in the till
If I don’t get wealthy
Then nobody will
Roll me in gold, fold me in notes

Chorus
Oh, when I get rich
When I get rich
I’ll do what I will
You just send me the bill
Oh, when I get rich

SOLO

M8
They tell me money can talk
Well I’ve got talking to do
They tell me cash will corrupt
Yeah I could handle that too
Cos when I’m set loose, I’ll do what I choose

Chorus
Oh, when I get rich
When I get rich …
Yeah, when I get rich …
Oh, when I get rich ...
