cast of you and me - prelude / song of the cash register lyrics

[part i: prelude]

[instrumental]

[part ii: song of the cash register]

[intro]
you cannot get something for nothing
and only a chump would try it
whatever you see that you really want
you may have, provided you buy it

[verse 1]
you’d like to live a life of luxury
wearing ermine wraps
a bracelet perhaps
or this sparkling gem
remember they cannot belong to you
until you pay for them

[verse 2]
you cannot get something for nothing
you’ve got to lay it on the line
the cars we ride in, you have to pay for them
the wines we thrive on, you have to pay for them
the foods we live on, you havе to buy
you must supply the do re mi
[verse 3]
you speak of things that monеy cannot buy
for instance, can you name a few? just try!
beauty to attract the man you love you have to buy!
gems of art to cultivate the mind you have to buy!
even vim and vigor and good health you have to buy
sunny skies and mother nature’s wealth you have to buy
cheese and roses, snowshoes and statues
perfumes and pistols, piccolos and dynamos
garbage cans and feather fans
candy sticks and building bricks
silver chests and movie sets
aeroplanes and streamlined trains
let’s see the color of your dough

[outro]
you cannot rearrange a plan made by man
since the world began
you cannot get something for nothing
only a chump thinks he can
