From the album "how to be a...Zillionaire!"
B-Side "Tower Of London"

I've seen the future
I can't afford it
Tell me the truth, sir
Someone just bought it
Say Mr. Whispers
Here comes the click of dice
Roulette and blackjack
Build us a paradise
Larger than life and
Twice as ugly
If we have to live there
You'll have to drug me

Maybe these luxuries
Can only compensate
For all the cards you were dealt
At the hands of fate

So tell me
Tell me, tell me
How to be (how to be) a millionaire
Tell me, tell me
How to be (how to be) a millionaire

Millionaire
Billionaire
Trillionaire

Hardly surprising
If you might consider
Loyalties go to the
Highest of bidders
What's my opinion
I'd give you ten to one
Give me a million
A franchise on fun
But, there are millions
Who often get nowhere
And there's just one secret
I think you should share

Maybe these luxuries
Can only compensate
For all the cards you were dealt
At the hands of fate

So tell me
Tell me, tell me
How to be (how to be) a millionaire
Tell me, tell me
How to be (how to be) a millionaire

Millionaire
Billionaire
Zillionaire

Billions, billions, billions, billions
Billions of pounds, billions of pounds
(Kill them someway)
Corruption
Corruption

Maybe these luxuries
Can only compensate
For all the cards you were dealt
At the hands of fate

So tell me
Tell me, tell me
How to be (how to be) a millionaire
Tell me, tell me
How to be (how to be) a millionaire

Who wants to be a millionaire
I do
I don't
I do
Who wants to be a millionaire
I do
I don't
I've seen the future
I can't afford it
