I don't wanna got to the beach
Or the movies or hang around with you
I wanna go where I'll win lots of money
I'll do what I have to do
Always on my back telling me
You need expensive stuff
Well, this should be enough
I'm gonna buy you a greyhound
And I'll name him after you
And when he wins I will buy you
Anything that you want me to
Been spending all of my time on the doghouse
This will never change
Never enough that I cook dinner
That puts restaurants to shame
And if I raise the capital
And rents not overdue
This is what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna buy you a racehorse and I'll name him after you
And when he wins I will buy you anything that you want me to
I'm gonna buy you a greyhound and I'll name him after you
And if he loses at least I'll have a friend who will be true
It's not cruelty if you inject enough amphetamines
I promise one day
I'll have a proper job to do
But that won't be anytime soon
I'm gonna buy you a greyhound and I'll name him after you
And when he wins I will buy you anything that you want me to
I'm gonna buy you a racehorse and I'll name him after you
And if he loses once I'll turn him into super glue
