Look up at that building
It must be fifty stories tall
I see the water beyond the waves
I see it all
Moving round in the morning
Drink my coffee and tea
I remember how I thought it would be
A life for you and me
If I can have anything I want
If I can have it all
Then I can take
Knowing the way things are
Cant you see
The moneys gone
I would buy you a house in Discovery Bay
With a deck, a boat, and a child
I would buy you back the blood youve lost
Id buy us a little while
Theres a park outside behind the freeway
I take a little ride
What we borrow comes from somewhere
No matter how we hide
If I can have anything I want
If I can have it all
Then I can take
Knowing the way things are
Cant you see
The moneys gone
Summer comes and goes
Nobody can hold it in
But I cant get up
But I wont give in
Everybody loses
And wins
Theres a view stretching over Broadway
Above the noise and din
I know what I spent my money on
I know what state Im in
Ill head down to California
Ill head out east someday
And Im taking you for what you are
And Ill be with you all along your way
If I can have anything I want
If I can have it all
Then I can take
Knowing the way things are
Cant you see
The moneys gone
