There’s Money On That Tree

Lyrics

[SPIKER, spoken] Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls- roll on up and see the eighth wonder of the world! Just one shilling to see the world's largest peach! [JAMES, spoken] Aunties, there are reporters at the gate! [SPIKER & SPONGE, spoken] Reporters? Bring 'em on! [REPORTERS] Readers of The Morning Star Don't know who you are but they will (You got something notable, so give me something quotable!) Tell the Herald all the juice Exclusives get more cachеt! Girls, what would you say To an exposé? [SPIKER & SPONGE, spoken] Okay! [GARDEN GUILD] Meet the ladies' gardеn guild We're humbled and thrilled to be here (We're here to salute that fabulous fruit!) Join our conference end of May We'll pay you ten thousand each If you'll give the keynote speech On that giant peach! [SPIKER & SPONGE, spoken] Yes, yes, yes! [COMPANY] 'Cause there's money, money, money On that tree [REPORTERS] Tell my editor what I just heard Bet he offers me a pound per word [COMPANY] Money, money, money On that tree Can't you see All the money on that tree! [JAMES, spoken] A helicopter just landed- they say they're from Hollywood! [SPIKER & SPONGE, spoken] Hollywood? Bring 'em on! [BUZZ & AGENTS] Love it! Work it! Let's get rich! They greenlit my pitch for your show! They're gonna flip on the sunset strip! Shoot it! Air it! Rave reviews! You're oozing with mass appeal Girls, how would you feel With a three-pic deal? [SPIKER & SPONGE, spoken] Yes, please! [COMPANY] Hey, there's money, money, money On that tree [BUZZ, spoken] Baby, everything you heard is true. Life is marvelous in Malibu! [COMPANY] Money, money, money On that tree Can't you see All the money on that tree! [SPIKER & SPONGE] Why work hard? Why work hard? (Hey! Yeah!) You just need a seed and a big backyard Why get jobs? (Who needs a job?) Or stay in school? (Drop out of school!) La-lee-la, you lumpish lawyers! All your walls of PhDs What a waste, they've been debased 'Cause money grows on trees! [REPORTERS] So skip that tiny print Let's make a deal and make a mint [GARDEN GUILD] Just sign the line on every 'x' (Money...) And you'll receive those weekly checks [AGENTS] And if your films don't get the go (Money...) [BUZZ] We'll throw you in some Broadway show! [ENSEMBLE] Sweetie, baby, cookie, honey Show me the peach! [COMPANY] 'Cause there's money, money, money On that tree [SPIKER & SPONGE] We can finally forget our cares We're gonna be gajillionaires! [COMPANY] Money, money, money On that tree Can't you see All the money on that- All the money on that- [SPIKER & SPONGE] Tree! [ENSEMBLE & SPIKER/SPONGE] Money, yeah! Money, yeah! (Sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me, sock it to me) [COMPANY] Oh, there's money on that- Money on that- Money on that- Tree! (I got the money!)
