Independent Girl
yeah she got her own,
most call her independent,
she dont need your money for her clothes and cars,
she makes her own money& she keeps a job,
gets good grades yeah a's & b's,
on top of her game,
yeah shes wifey,
most say she stuck up,
some say she cool,
but no matter what she still gone shine,
confidence threw the roof,
yeah she stay fly,
money in the bank,
tell me dude what you think.

Id Rather Be Rich
Id rather be rich, it sounds a little funny;
If diggin a ditch would earn me lots of money,
Id dig like a fool in the land of milk and honey;
Where everythings cool, provided you have money, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Id rather be rich, just short of being greedy;
Im eager to switch, to hell with being needy.
Id rather be rich, the truth of cash is tragic,
The systems a bitch, but money works like magic, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Money makes the world go round;
Buy and sell it by the pound;
Bitter truth that I have found:
Food to eat, shoes on your feet,
Maybe some heat, you live with defeat.
Bridge:
Money gets you justice, money sets you free,
Money makes it possible to be or not to be.
Money is the power, money is the key,
Sad and so unfortunate, but real as it can be, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Id rather be rich, than what the other choice is;
My thumb out to hitch, or riding in rolls royces;
cause I aint no fool in the land of milk and honey;
Where everythings cool until you lose your money.

I'd fly above the trees
Over the seas in all degrees
To anywhere I please

Let's fade into the sun
Let your spirit fly
Where we are one
Just for a little fun

Take Care Of Yourself
Are you ready?
(yeah yeah)
Are you ready to rock?
(yeah yeah)
Do you wanna do it?
(yeah yeah)
Get down on it?
(yeah yeah)
Marching clock now he dont stop,
Seen it quite a lot
And he says take care of yourself,
Old man sighs, shuts his eyes
And leaves behind another life
Take care of yourself,
Millstones swing, grind your thing
Pay the tax and alimony.
Take care of yourself,
Raise that boy, hell go far
cos he had a real good teacher.
Take care of yourself
Truth dont go, dont go far
Sell a lie to any paper.
Take care of yourself.
Sleep too deep, zombie sleep,
And all alone it has to be.
Take care of yourself.
Peace of mind is hard to find
But he dont mind like you dont mind yall
Big t dont care that you dont mind
No she dont care and you dont matter
One nine nine oh here we go
May the next ten break the mould
Take care of yourself
Mister goods gone away
Looking out for number one says
Take care of yourself
Did she say where youd have to stay
When the partys over?
Can you face the longest march to come
Now you know youre not the number one?
Yeah yeah

Yeah yeah

Thats Where My Money Goes
Words and music: alfie zappacosta, paul dean, gerald obrian
Shes so fine, shes so eccentric
And what she buys, must be authentic
I paid up, to keep her down
I go crazy when shes not around, yeah, yeah
Shes got me in the palm of her hand
But please understand
No one ever made me feel
Quite like a man
She does, oh ya
You see that little girl of mine
Thats where my money goes
Thats where my money goes
And I work hard (he works hard) I work overtime
Its no good, cause I cant save a dime
When I have it, I got to spend it
On my baby
Cause Im so dependent... ya... on love...
My friends tell me Im out of my mind
But its not a crime
Iii do anything to keep that girl all mine
Oh ya, all mine
Shes satisfied and it shows
Thats where my money goes

So take it all baby

My friends tell me Im out of my mind
But its not a crime
Ill do anything to keep that girl all mine

Big Fat Money
Some say money is bad for the soul
Bad for the rock, bad for the roll
Bad for the heart, bad for the brain
Bad for damn near everything, oh yeah
It must be good for something
Come on pay the rent
Telephone, telefax, telefunkin teletrash
Tell a cop, tell a friend
Think weve hit the stoney end
Nothin left, nothin right
Now they want a bigger bite
Everybody wants some
Everybody wants some big money, oh yeah
They want big fat money
Thats what I want
Big fat money
Too much temptation
Enough to kill a generation
Space station, starvation, premature ejaculation
This aint groovin, this aint funky

No Second Thoughts
She threw down her golden band
Crushed it with her feet into the sand
Took her silent partner by the hand
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Somewhere near the edge of town
She said she was torn and turned around
Can you help me cast this evil down?
Yeah yeah ooh yeah yeah
Well d rive for the line
Now theres nothing to be lost
You and I will cross over
With no second thoughts
Well drive for the line
Now theres nothing to be lost
You and I will cross over
With no second thoughts
Dreams fade hope dies hard
She cups her eyes and looks out at the stars
Says I feel weve traveled very far
