Loading...

[studio dialogue]
what’d i say?
you wrote another song
no, it’s this song
i’d like to do it
are you ready?
of course
is the tape moving? i can do this one in one take
i’m gonna do it again?
yeah
don’t count on me
what? well, i’ll do the best i can

[intro]
i’d like to do a song of great social and political import
it goes like this

[verse 1]
oh lord, won’t you buy me a mercedes benz?
my friends all drive porsches, i must make amends
worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends
so, oh lord, won’t you buy me a mercedes benz?

[verse 2]
oh lord, won’t you buy me a color tv?
dialing for dollars is trying to find me
i wait for delivery each day until three
so, oh lord, won’t you buy me a color tv?
[verse 3]
oh lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town?
i’m counting on you lord, please don’t let me down
prove that you love me and buy the next round
oh lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town?

everybody!

[verse 1]
oh lord, won’t you buy me a mercedes benz?
my friends all drive porsches, i must make amends
worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends
so, oh lord, won’t you buy me a mercedes benz?

[spoken outro]
that’s it! ha ha ha ha ha ha
