Lyrics

This is the Ben Folds version of this great Ray Charles song. It's all about how tough it is for those of us who don't have anything to GET anything. Well, since Tony HAS everything already, I thought it'd be funny to steal this song to have Tony brag about what all he actually has.

---------------------------------

I found five pairs of my boatin’ shoes
Tucked underneath my china set
And my Caddy don’t play, don’t play no cassettes
Even rich peeps need stuff to get.

I’m runnin’ out of space to hold my wine
And soon I’ll be rockin’ my lorgnettes
And I’ve managed to get, what you in Queens just wants to get but
There’s still room for a private jet (and enough Ativan to fill a second house).

I’ve been sayin’ what I’ve got, and what I’ll get
Is somethin’ that’s for free
If I gotta have somethin’
That costs me nothin’
They might as well name the Redskins after me (maybe the Orange-skins or somethin’)

I’ve got leather jackets and much finer clothes
And countless things make me upset
But that’s gotten me crap
That only them that’s got supposed to get
And you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
Perhaps I’ll get a marmoset
Rick Barry got me a fishing net
Well, I’m rich, don’t you forget
