LYRICS
I wanna be a billionaire so fucking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights yeah
A different city every night alright
I swear the world better prepare
For when Im a billionaire
Yeah I would have a show like Oprah
I would be the host of everyday Christmas
Give Travie your wish list
Id probably pull an Angelina and Brad Pitt
And adopt a bunch of babies that aint never had shit
Give away a few Mercedes like Here lady have this
And last but not least grant somebody their last wish
Its been a couple months that Ive been single so
You can call me Travie Claus minus the Ho Ho
Ha ha get it? Id probably visit where Katrina hit
And damn sure do a lot more than FEMA did
Yeah, cant forget about me, stupid
Everywhere I go, Imma have my own theme music
Oh every time I close my eyes (what you see what you see brah?)
I see my name in shining lights (uhuh uhuh yeah what else?)
A different city every night alright
I swear the world better prepare (for what?)
For when Im a billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh for when Im a billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh for when Im a billionaire
Ill be playing basketball with the President
Dunking on his delegates
Then Ill compliment him on his political etiquette
Toss a couple milli in the air just for the heck of it
But keep the fives, twenties, tens and bens completely separate
And yeah Ill be in a whole new tax racket
We in recession but let me take a crack at it
Ill probably take whatevers left and just split it up
So everybody that I love can have a couple bucks
And not a single tummy around me would know what hungry was
Eating good, sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
Go in your pocket, pull out your wallet
And put it in the air and sing
I wanna be a billionaire so fucking bad (so bad)
Buy all of the things I never had (buy everything ha ha)
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen (what up Oprah)
Oh every time I close my eyes, (watch ya see, what you see brah?)
I see my name in shining lights, (uh huh, uh huh, what else?)
A different city every night, oh I
I swear the world better prepare (for what?)
For when Im a billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh when Im a billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh

Listen to Calvin Harris here: clvnhrr.is/Hits?IQId=YT
Im lyin here on the floor where you left me
I think I took too much
Im crying here, what have you done?
I thought it would be fun
I cant stay on your life support,
Theres a shortage in the switch,
I cant stay on your morphine,
Cause its making me itch
I said I tried to call the nurse again
But shes being a little bitch,
I think Ill get outta here, where I can
Run just as fast as I can
To the middle of nowhere
To the middle of my frustrated fears
And I swear youre just like a pill
Instead of makin me better,
You keep makin me ill
"
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
Shes coming in twelve-thirty flight
Her moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say: Hurry boy, its waiting there for you
Its gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Theres nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had"
