Last Of The Big Time Spenders Lyrics - Streetlife Serenade - Billy Joel

Well if money makes a rich man 

Then I might never make the grade 

I'll be a small time operator 

If I just get the landlord paid 

But if time is an indication 

Of the wealth that I never knew 

Then I'm the last of the big time spenders 

'cause I've been spending time on you, woo oo oo woo 

It takes time to appreciate 

Lord knows that you can learn to hate it 

I believe, 'cause I've been there too 

When it gets down to desperation 

You make the best of the situation 

I can tell, I've seen it thru, oh, oh, oh

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Though it seems like the day is wasted 

And the nights have been overdue 

Well, I'm the last of the big time spenders 

And I've been spendin' time on you, woo oo oo woo 

It's been so long since we got together 

In between it seems to take forever 

But I'm a dreamer, I'll be there soon 

It takes time to appreciate 

All of those that you can learn to hate 

I believe, I've seen it thru, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

You can call me the great pretender 

And in a way it might be true 

But I'm the last of the big time spenders 

And I've been spendin' time on you, woo oo oo woo
