Cash And Prizes

Del Amitri


I've got cash and prizes more than a man could dream 
I've got a hundred houses, some that I've never seen 
I've got walls of paintings high as the Hoover Dam 
I've got cash and prizes, but I don't know who I am 

I've got a thousand people act on my every word 
Point at the sky above me, and I own every bird 
I've got a wife who holds me in her diamond-studded hands 
I've got cash and prizes, but I don't know who I am 

I've got buildings, I've got planes 
That light the skyline with my name 
I am everywhere but here 
A colossus on the index, but touch the cancel key and I just disappear 

I've got cash and prizes 'cause I've got the stuff it takes 
I've got a Rolls-Royce running just 'cause I love the sound it makes 
I've got two sons competing to be the images of me 
But cash and prizes I guess is all that they can see
