The cost of living's rising
And it really is surprising
My boss came into me today
Said he's gonna raise my pay
But that would have been okay
About a year ago today

My Dad's a money lender
But I'm a money spender
And he won't give me a cent or dime
Say's I'm much to fat on crime
But spending is my greatest sin
Should bank the lot and be like him

I need to beg for money
Million, trillion
Sweet as honey
Can't take nothing to the sky
Spend the lot before I die

The wheel is always spinning
But someone else is winning
The cards just never fall my way
The losing hands I seem to play
Gambling is my favourite vice
My fingers itch when I see dice

I need to beg for money
Million, trillion
Sweet as honey
Can't take nothing to the sky
Spend the lot before I die

I need, beg for money
I need, beg for money
I need, beg for money.....
