Tom Tom Club – Happiness Can't Buy Money lyrics

Up and down, the people wanna bounce to the funky sound
You got yo' radios blarin' and the deejays flarin' all over town
'Nuf respect is just what you gonna get when you jam and wind
But happiness can't buy money

On and on the party keeps rockin' on 'til the break of dawn
And the people next door must be wonderin' what it is we're on
If it makes you happy, you can party on 'til the end of time
But happiness can't buy money

So make my day
Don't be passé
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money

So what's the deal?
Give me money
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money

So what's the deal?
Give me money

Everybody agree, happiness is free, so whatcha gonna do
Say goodbye to the old cliché's, say hello to the new
You can turn it on, whatever gets you goin', it's a state of mind
But happiness can't buy money

So make my day
Don't be passé
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money

So what's the deal?
Give me money
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money

So what's the deal?
Give me money

Everybody, hold on, relax
This is just like in the movies
Everyone will be a shooting star
And all will make lots of money

Money, money, money, money, money, money
Happiness can't buy money

Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
So what's the deal?
Give me money

Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
So what's the deal?
Give me money

Come on, get real, come on
Give me money
Come on
Give me money

So make my day
Don't be passé
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money

So what's the deal?
Give me money
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money

Happiness can't buy money
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
So what's the deal?

Give me money
Come on, come on, get real
Give me money
Happiness can't buy money
