I knew just what I wanted from day one
I can say that with no hesitation
It wasn't friends, it's sure as hell not love
Oh, no
It's started wars and civilizations
The foundation of a nation
And it's the cure to every complication
Oh, yeah
Some devote their lives to the greater good
And I wish that I could, uh
I'm chasing the one thing that I need
To be seen, to be free
(Money, money, money) turn my cup to gold
(Money, money, money) and just let it overflow
(Money, money, money) it's the only thing I know with nowhere else I can go
(Money, money, money) got it on the brain
(Money, money, money) flowing through my veins
(Money, money, money) I'm just looking for some change
Some change
(Money, money, money)
(Money, money, money)
They say it can't buy happiness
But right now I'm a complete mess, still
Maybe if I could afford to find some help
I could fix this
And I'm living day by day
Stuck in a world that won't give me any pay
To get what I need, let alone what I want
To be seen, to be free
Unless I win the lottery
(Money, money, money) chase a diamond ring
(Money, money, money) like a carat on a string
(Money, money, money) all the happiness it brings when it fixes everything
(Money, money, money) got it on the brain
(Money, money, money) flowing through my veins
(Money, money, money) I'm just looking for some change
Some change
