0:00Okay, okay
0:06Yeah
0:08Think my paradise is tabloids and flashing lights
0:11Truth is, it's more like loads of cash
0:14And a nice guy and a life lived right (I know that)
0:22There's just some things that they don't tell you, tell you
0:26And all the dreams they try to sell you, sell you
0:29The price of fame can take you to your knees
0:33And when it does, wanna run away with me? (Yeah)
0:36I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
0:41You, you, you, y-you could be the one I'm calling honey
0:46Be my sex on the side
0:49You, you, you, you
0:51Acres of open stars, headlights of precious cars, life imitating art
0:56I, I, I, I, I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
1:02Be my, be my
1:05Drive fast, take me out of here
1:08Louis out the window and the 310 in the mirror
1:12Life's great when you disappear
1:15Rockies took the girl, but the city took the golden years
1:20This industry will try to kill you, kill you
1:24But not before they try to bill you, bill you
1:27They try to take away your wild and free
1:31And when they do, wanna run away with me?
1:34I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
1:39You, you, you, y-you could be the one I'm calling honey
1:44Be my sex on the side
1:47You, you, you, you
1:48Acres of open stars, headlights of precious cars, life imitating art
1:54I, I, I, I, I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
2:00Be my, be my
2:20Go into my garden, pick the money off the tree
2:24I don't pay for nothing, baby, people pay me
2:28And you right beside me's just the icing on the dream
2:31I don't need you, I want you, and that's my favorite thing
2:34Go into my garden, pick the money off the tree
2:38I don't date nobody, baby, people date me
2:42And you right beside me's just the icing on the dream (Oh yeah)
2:46I don't need you, I want you, and that's my favorite thing
2:52I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
2:56You, you, you, y-you could be the one I'm calling honey
3:01Be my sex on the side
3:04You, you, you, you
3:06Acres of open stars, headlights of precious cars, life imitating art
3:11I, I, I, I, I just wanna make a lot of money, be my own housewife
3:18Be my, be my
