Last of the Big Time Spenders

Well if money makes a rich man

Then I might never make the grade

I'll be a small time operator

If I just get the landlord paid

But if time is an indication

Of the wealth that I never knew

Then I'm the last of the big time spenders

'Cause I've been spending time on you, woo oo oo woo

It takes time to appreciate

Lord knows that you can learn to hate it

I believe, 'cause I've been there too

When it gets down to desperation

You make the best of the situation

I can tell, I've seen it thru, oh, oh, oh

Though it seems like the day is wasted

And the nights have been overdue

Well, I'm the last of the big time spenders

And I've been spendin' time on you, woo oo oo woo

It's been so long since we got together

In between it seems to take forever

But I'm a dreamer, I'll be there soon

It takes time to appreciate

All of those that you can learn to hate

I believe, I've seen it thru, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

You can call me the Great Pretender

And in a way it might be true

But I'm the last of the big time spenders

And I've been spendin' time on you, woo oo oo woo
