Lyrics

[Verse 1] The boss is dead, so what, who cares? He was confined to bed and grumpy I used to dread to climb the stairs He made me nervous, even jumpy Here in his mansion he would live Making believe that it was haunted Here was a man who'd never give Here was a man who always wanted, yeah He always wanted, that man, yeah He always wanted [Verse 2] He got his fortune from his dad Had never spent a day in business I could have said he was a cad But I was told to mind my business I used to smile at him and think His time would come, why should I worry? Especially since he took to drink It won't be long, and would be sorry, no Yeah, would be sorry [Verse 3] His health was slowly getting worse He never wanted a physician To top it all I was his nurse What if they had an inquisition? What did he die from? I don't know To have a guess might be the wrong thing One thing is sure, he had to go And there's no doubt he died of something, yeah He really died of something, that man, yeah [Verse 4] Before he uttered his last breath He asked to see all his relations Until the moment of his death He noticed their anticipation Then came the time for friends to grieve All of a sudden friends were many Hoping to get what he would leave But they were left without a penny, yeah Without a single penny, yeah [Verse 5] Although they got what they deserved I found the whole thing very funny Especially the moment when I heard It was to me he left his money To me, to me All that money Yes, to me, ah
