[I. Mr. Money] [Miss Mediocraty:] "Hey there sweetie. Don't I know you? I swear I recognize your face... and those beautiful eyes... You know, they say the eyes are the doorway to ones soul... There's a smile. A little shy, aren't we? Hey, do you wanna get out of here [Mr. Money:] Hey Miss Mediocrity, gee, I'm sorry You've seen me on TV, I'm Mr. Money Now you want someone to hold you And call when you're in town Someone to calm you and confirm you Well, I'm here... ...to let you down 'Cause outside these sexy cars And far from my trendy bars Behind these smiles... [Miss Mediocraty:] "...maybe go someplace..." [Mr. Money:] ...And sunscreen... [Miss Mediocraty:] "...more quiet, where we could... you know... talk!" [Mr. Money:] Songtexte...And "Live the Dream!"s... [Miss Mediocraty:] "...and get to know each other..." [Mr. Money:] I am cold! [Miss Mediocraty:] "...no?" [Mr. Money:] And mean! [Miss Mediocraty:] "How about a ride in that Bentley up front? It's yours isn't it? I'll be a good girl, I promise! ...or bad... ...whatever you like!" [Mr. Money:] Daily Finance - that's me in the Armani Got Three Mercedes 350, two Ferraris I Could have bought a Third World country With the riches that I've spent But hey All modern economics claim that I deserved Every single cent And the one time I'm the lesser half Is when we split the tab So here's to Friends, Family and Liberty, Genuinity, here's to Happiness, Success, Good Press, No Stress... But most of all... Here's to Me! Here's to Me! Here's to Me! There will be nothing left... So... Here's to Me! ([Dea Pecuniae:] Oh baby, baby) Here's to Me! ([Dea Pecuniae:] I'll take care of you) Here's to Me! There will be nothing left... Nothing left... ...for you [Dea Pecuniae:] "If you're looking for fulfillment A Kingdom and a Crown A Paradise of Free Rides I am here... ...to let you down I'll get you the sexy cars And a taste of divinity A glimpse of the Stars Immortality But then Vanity Will leave you dried and scarred ([Mr. Money:] That's right, oh, give it to me!) Here's to Me! ([Mr. Money:] Oh baby, baby) Here's to Me! ([Mr. Money:] You'll take care of me) Here's to Me! To me" [II. Permanere] [Mr. Money:] But then when it's silent And the lights from the bars go down I need comforting 'Cause somewhere there deep inside Feelings of loss arise And I hate to lose! [III: I Raise My Glass] They say it's lonely at the top Then I'm as lonely as can be But I am not too sorry You see, I've chosen this company I got myself a winning team It's Me, Myself and I You bet it's lonely at the top old friends And I'm here today to tell you suckers why!
