lirik lagu mozart’s money – blumenfeld hugh
where the h-ll did it go?
they say he spent it all on wine and women
but even so–
i know a guy who wrote a song for garth brooks
and now he’s got it made for life
but mozart never really made a lot of money,
and that’s what i tell my wife.
i’d like to know what happened to poe’s
investment portfolio
maybe he walled it up in that crypt
with his good friend fortunato
i know a guy who knows stephen king
who’ll be a sheik in the afterlife
but mr. poe never made much dough
and that’s what i tell my wife
i accost her with tales of stephen foster
and the visionary william blake
i say “honey, you can’t count the money
that a genius doesn’t make.”
but wallace stevens was also from hartford,
a big insurance man
william carlos williams was a pediatrician
and eliot worked in a bank.
time will tell if they were poets as well
or if they’re just big books on the shelf
but most of my heroes never made a lot of money
and that’s what i keep telling myself
what ever happened to mozart’s money–and what about van gogh?
i tell you there’s more than blood that’s red in the books of edgar allen
poe
imagination in large denominations is something you can never earn
but the poor d-mned souls who made mozarts money, still got money to burn
yeah, the poor d-mned souls who made mozarts money,
they still got money to burn
