[05:04.03][00:06.88] Album:Picture Book
[05:22.55][00:18.59]
[00:19.30] Listen boy, I'll tell you a thing
[00:23.79] I'll make you a career in the business I'm in
[00:28.63] I'll make you rich, I'll make you a toy
[00:33.38] I'll make you turn over into my little boy
[00:37.92]
[00:38.52] Y'see I'm going somewhere
[00:43.02] I don't know what I'm gonna do when I get there
[00:48.90] I know money's a thing - your only inspiration
[00:55.00] And your only meaning
[00:57.84] You must think that all I do
[01:01.99] Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you
[01:06.92] You can fall when I will climb
[01:11.53] But I'll be falling over
[01:13.69] just by having you in my mind
[01:17.14]
[01:17.41] Mend that fight - oh listen to them
[01:21.61] Kickin' up a ball inside a jericho wall
[01:26.08] Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them
[01:31.52] If you ain't rich then you won't go to the ball
[01:35.45]
[01:45.43] Having mercy and licking up love
[01:49.94] And moving through your ocean like I've never had enough
[01:55.65] Y'see you ain't all I want
[01:59.50] You're everything and more that I have ever hoped for
[02:04.98] You must think that all I do
[02:08.96] Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you
[02:14.35] You can fall when I will climb
[02:19.03] But I'll be falling over
[02:20.78] just by having you in my mind
[02:23.60]
[02:23.98] Mend that fight - oh listen to them
[02:29.43] Kickin' up a ball inside a jericho wall
[02:33.08] Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them
[02:38.56] I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball
[02:41.99]
[02:42.61] You won't go to the ball
[02:45.01] You won't go to the ball
[02:56.94][02:47.35] You won't go, you won't go
[02:59.71][02:49.82] You won't go to the ball
[03:10.99][03:01.74]
[03:11.89] You must think that all I do
[03:15.85] Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you
[03:21.09] You can fall when I will climb
[03:25.65] But I'll be falling over
[03:27.78] just by having you in my mind
[03:30.60]
[03:31.03] Mend that fight - oh listen to them
[03:36.48] Kickin' up a ball outside a no. 10 wall
[03:40.06] Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them
[03:45.43] I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball
[03:49.01] No more!
[03:49.91] You won't go to the ball
[03:59.22] You won't go to the ball
[04:04.75][03:54.42] You won't go, you won't go
[04:06.40][03:56.83] You won't go to the ball
[04:08.53]
[04:16.43][04:09.05] Yeah, if you ain't got nothing
[04:17.96][04:12.83] You'll never go there
[04:19.49]
[04:37.77][04:28.19] I tried to make you see
[04:39.77][04:30.11] I tell you I'd had enough
[04:42.18][04:32.66] Money was a thing, money was a thing
[04:44.36][04:35.06] Money was a thing that I believed in
[04:47.69][04:37.26]
