Billy Joel Last Of The Big Time Spenders Lyrics

Last Of The Big Time Spenders Lyrics

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
