| [00:16.19] | The life I've always wanted |
| [00:18.54] | I guess I'll never have |
| [00:20.74] | I'll be working for somebody else |
| [00:23.58] | Until I'm in my grave |
| [00:25.90] | I’ll be dreaming of life of ease |
| [00:28.78] | And mountains, oh mountains o'things |
| [00:36.63] | Have a big expensive car |
| [00:39.03] | Drag my furs on the ground |
| [00:41.95] | And have a maid that I can tell |
| [00:44.38] | To bring me anything |
| [00:47.21] | Everyone will look at me with envy and with greed |
| [00:52.05] | I'll revel in their attention |
| [00:54.50] | And mountains |
| [00:55.41] | Oh mountains o'things |
| [01:02.87] | Sweet lazy life |
| [01:04.93] | Champagne and caviar |
| [01:07.94] | I hope you'll come and find me |
| [01:10.60] | Cause you know who we are |
| [01:13.08] | Those who deserve the best in life |
| [01:15.68] | And know what money's worth |
| [01:18.33] | And those whose sole misfortune |
| [01:20.59] | Was having mountains o'nothing at birth |
| [01:27.96] | Oh they tell me |
| [01:30.66] | There's still time to save my soul |
| [01:33.26] | They tell me |
| [01:38.21] | Renounce all |
| [01:41.03] | Renounce all those material things you gained by |
| [01:45.93] | Exploiting other human beings |
| [01:53.56] | Consume more than you need |
| [01:56.61] | This is the dream |
| [01:59.42] | Make you pauper |
| [02:01.78] | Or make you queen |
| [02:04.53] | I won't die lonely |
| [02:06.43] | I’ll have it all prearranged |
| [02:08.94] | A grave that’s deep and wide enough |
| [02:11.39] | For me and all my mountains o'things |
| [02:18.83] | Oh they tell me |
| [02:21.58] | There's still time to save my soul |
| [02:24.12] | They tell me |
| [02:29.17] | Renounce all |
| [02:31.99] | Renounce all those material things you gained by |
| [02:36.89] | Exploiting other human beings |
| [02:45.89] | Mostly I feel lonely |
| [02:54.46] | Good good people are |
| [02:58.90] | Good people are only |
| [03:02.48] | My stepping stones |
| [03:05.90] | It's gonna take all my mountains o'things |
| [03:10.01] | To surround me |
| [03:15.83] | Keep all my enemies away |
| [03:21.12] | Keep my sadness and loneliness at bay |
| [03:30.55] | The life I've always wanted |
| [03:33.11] | I guess I'll never have |
| [03:35.61] | I'll be working for somebody else |
| [03:38.07] | Until I'm in my grave |
| [03:40.52] | I'll be dreaming of life of ease |
| [03:43.23] | And mountains, oh mountains o'things |
| [03:50.35] | I'll be dreaming, dreaming, dreaming... |
| [04:27.95] | Dreaming... |
