Xmas Blues

I'm no money king to buy a diamond ring Got no bank account to invite you out Got no cash in hand for our wedding band Nil on asset-side for my jet set bride Got no credit card, no red rose sweetheart Empty treasure house, no Armani blouse Got no sponsorship, no vacation trip Got no banker's draft, got no Xmas gift my love Money kicks the world go 'round Money kicks the world go 'round Dollar, Euro, British Pound Money kicks the world go 'round Money kicks the world go 'round Money kicks the world go 'round Dollar, Euro, British Pound Money kicks the world go 'round That's why good Chinese will buy our bad virtual debts (how complex) Using traveler's checks With virtual funds swapped for virtual bonds they embark on amusement parks
