Cash Cow (A Rock Opera in Three Small Acts) |
Move… |
Move in closer… |
Move in closer to the… |
Move in closer to the middle of the frame |
(Act Two) |
It was a morning just like any other morning |
In the Sinai desert, 1200 B. C |
It glistened, it glowed, it rose from the gold of the children of Israel |
…And most of the adults |
The cash cow! |
The golden cash cow had a body like the great cows of ancient Egypt |
And a face like the face of Robert Tilton |
…Without the horns |
And through the centuries is has roamed the earth |
Like a ravenous bovine |
Seeking whom it may lick |
Cash cow! |
Cash cow! |
From the valley of the shadow of the outlet mall |
To customized petwear boutique |
From the trailer of the fry chef |
To the palace of the sheik |
The cash cow lurks |
The cash cow lurks |
The cash cow lurks |
HA HA HA HA… |
Who loves you, baby? |
Who’ll give you good credit? |
Who says you’ll regret it? |
Aaa-ooooooo |
Who loves you, baby? |
Who’ll give you good credit? |
Who says you’ll regret it? |
Aaa-aaa-aaa-ooooooo |
I was in love and I needed the money |
And then I needed more money |
I was filthy rich and all I wanted was love |
…And a little more money |
Woe to you, proud mortal |
Secure in your modest digs |
You think you’re immune? |
You, who couldn’t finger said cow in a police line-up with the three little |
pigs! |
Cash cow! |
Master of disguises! |
Who’s gonna change shape at will? |
Who’s the eye on the pyramid on the back of the dollar bill? |
Who loves power lunchin' from Spago to Sizzler? |
Who loves you, baby? |
Who’ll give you good credit? |
Who says you’ll regret it? |
Aaa-ooooooo |
Who loves you, baby? |
Who’ll give you good credit? |
Who says you’ll regret it? |
Aaa-aaa-aaa-ooooooo |
Who loves you, baby? |
Who’ll give you good credit? |
Who says you’ll regret it? |
Aaa-aaa-aaa-ooooooo |
Cash cow comin' to get ya |
Why? |
Cuz you think this is stupid, don’t you? |
The cash cow will not be mocked! |
The cash cow’s planning a coup! |
The cash cow chews cud bigger than you! |
Woe, woe, woe to you |
Who blow off this warning |
Perhaps you’ve already been licked |
I, too, was hypnotized |
By those big cow eyes |
The last time I uttered those three little words |
«I deserve better!» |
(Act Three — instrumental) |
