lyrics

A man walks down the grey street to the council house on the corner
His wife is as beautiful as the first day that he saw her
But the rent needs paying, no matter how much praying
Even against his will
He looks at the clouds, wishing somehow
Love would pay the bills

The pressure is building and rising and pulling us down, down
And their answer is always the same

Money can't buy happiness
Well ain't that funny? Well ain't that funny?
That money can't buy happiness
Yet it's so hard to be happy when we don't have any

A young girl tries to keep up with the latest trends at school
Keeps chasing those that want for nothing and ends up the fool
Says 'Mummy won't you buy me this, Daddy won't you buy me that?
Why do I have to go without?'
It's a hard lesson to learn so young, what life is about

The pressure is building and rising and pulling us down, down
And their answer is always the same

Money can't buy happiness
Well ain't that funny? Well ain't that funny?
That money can't buy happiness
Yet it's so hard to be happy when we don't have any
Money can't buy happiness
Well ain't that funny? Well ain't that funny?
That money can't buy happiness
Yet it's so hard to be happy when we don't have any

Money can't buy happiness
Well ain't that funny? Well ain't that funny?
That money can't buy happiness
Yet it's so hard to be happy when we don't have any
At all
