A Flapper's Diary Songtext
von Alice Francis

Woke up this morning
Knowing the postman came
No letter for me, instead I′m feeling stupid
It seems that people who are walking all along my way
They just only want want want they want my money

So I jump in my suit to across the street
To buy some matches, they want a dollar 15
But when I look to the restroom
Said "couldn't believe what I′ve seen"
A cheap and stinky place but they want money for to pee

'Cause everybody wants the money
The money is what they want
Some dublin cheese and chips and bags of lolly
They want your money in their account

So my trouble went coming
When I went to the bank
To draw up some money at the ATM
But then I look in my account
There was nothing that I found


Because when it comes to pay pay pay
They say "sorry honey later"

Put it on later, fuming on my knees
So I took to the pawnshop, all my jewelry
At least they gave me some cash (cash)
Which I put in my wallet
But when I wanted to go on home, my wallet, it was gone

'Cause everybody wants some money
The money is what they want
Some dublin cheese and chips and bags of lolly
They want your money in their

Oh, everybody wants the money
The money is what they want
Some dublin cheese and chips and bags of lolly
They want your money in their account

In my dreams, I′m a queen
Livin′ in a villa on the seaside
Buy five cars, a lot of dollars


But, everybody wants the money
The money is what they want
Some dublin cheese and chips and bags of lolly
They want your money in their

Oh, everybody wants the money
The cash is what they want
Some dublin cheese and chips and bags of cheese and cheddar
And jack and bazooma and zeep president and everything
