Wedding Singer Ensemble, Stephen Lynch, Richard H. Blake - All About the Green lyrics

There's a big shiny future
You've been dying to buy
Better start power lunching
In your power tie you can't wait for fate
To somehow intervene
If you wanna be somebody
It's all about the green

I'm sure it's a little more complicated

It's all about the green

Some may say you're headed
Down a crooked trail
But, if you sell your soul
At least you've made a sale
You could end world hunger
Or create a vaccine
But, if you wanna be somebody
It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody

It's all about the big bucks
Fat checks midnight flights
To LAX

Slush funds high fives

Trading Stocks and trading wives

C notes half G's

Buy out the Japanese

Land deals down in Bocca

Doing drinks with Iacocca

Yeah, it's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the green

Hey, Gulia, I just got back from Seattle
There's a coffee store there that's
Thinking of going national
Did you get my memo on that?

Nobody's ever gonna pay three bucks
For a cup of coffee!
Bring me some real tips!

I got something - my brother-in
Law works for Coca-Cola
They're changing their formula - gonna
Sell it as "New Coke"

New Coke - that's brilliant!
Buy all the Coca-Cola
Stock you can get your hands on! See, robbie

(sung)

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the bank rolls
Legal tender strippers screaming

"Hey, Big Spender!"

Cut throat firm Expansion

Regroup at the playboy Mansion

Blue chips pink slips

Foreign beers and ego trips

Bank boards gettin' antsy

Jellybeans from Ron and Nancy
Yeah, it's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the corporate hacks like
Stabbing backs and twisting arms real slow
But, you only holler uncle
If your uncle is the CEO
Yeah, it's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the quick deal
Liquidation

S&L deregulation

Grand slam strong gainer

Dershowitz on retainer

Output income

Skimming off a tidy sum

Reaganomics quid pro quo

The GOP is SRO

Yeah, it's all about the green

Wanna be somebody

It's all about the money

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the

It's all about the pay dirt shuck and jive

Five to nine

Not nine to five

Kick backs

Payola

Inside tips on Pepsi-Cola

Nasdaq

Dow Jones

Worshipping the Milken Clones
Old cigars new Camara
Yo quiero more dinero

It's all about the green

I wanna be somebody

It's all about the green

I wanna be somebody Wanna be somebody

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody?

It's all about the green

Wanna be somebody

It's all about the green
