Song of the Day: Theme From Peter Gunn by Henry Mancini & His Orchestra

Today’s song of the day is one that will hopefully help me get a little bit more focused on getting things done.  Either that, or it will inspire me to go out and drive really fast.  I’ll find out soon enough!

Song of the Day: Money (That’s What I Want) by The Flying Lizards

Posted on by Lisa Marie Bowman

I did check my stock portfolio this morning.  Jeff warned me not to.  Erin told me not to.  If I had asked my other sisters, I’m sure they would have said, “Don’t do it, just let our broker deal with it….”

But I checked.  Agck!

It’s funny.  I didn’t really care about money until I had it.

Anyway, today’s song of the day should make sense now.

The best things in life are free
But you can give them to the birds and bees

I need money (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)

Your love give me such a thrill
But your love don’t pay my bills

I need money (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)

Money don’t get everything, it’s true
But what it don’t get, I can’t use

I need money (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)
That’s what I want (that’s what I want)

Money (that’s what I want)
Lots of money (that’s what I want)
Whole lot of money (that’s what I want)
Uh-huh (that’s what I want)
All I want (that’s what I want)
Whoa, yeah (that’s what I want)

Give me money (that’s what I want)
Oh, lots of money (that’s what I want)
All those lean greens, yeah (that’s what I want)
I got that, uh, that’s what I mean (that’s what I want)
All that I want (that’s what I want)
Whoa, yeah (that’s what I want)
Give me money, yeah
