Lyrics:
Oh God I want Christmas all year ’round
I want a swimming pool I don’t want to drown
I want a lot of money but I don’t wanna pay taxes
Unless it’s just a penny in the pound
I want a mini cooper, immune to endorsements
I want a place in the country and a penthouse apartment
I want a yacht to sail, I want a pass on British rail
Guaranteed with my own compartment
I’m not begging, but I’m asking
I’m not giving, but I’m receiving
I’m not taking but if you’re listening
This is everything I’ve been wanting
I want to be happy for the rest of my life
I want to die but not by the knife
I want to sleep all afternoon
I want to rise at night with the moon
I want a daughter without the wife
I want Marilyn Monroe
Painted by Warhol
Reincarnated Jean Harlow
I want the style of De Niro
I want to get out of this place
I want to see your face
Until then Amen, I gotta go
I’m not begging, but I’m asking
I’m not giving, but I’m receiving
I’m not taking but if you’re listening
This is everything I’ve been wanting
