Jonathan Coulton

Millionaire Girlfriend

Jonathan Coulton


I will wait a lifetime if it takes that long 
I know she's out there for I have heard her song 
In dreams she sings to me 
Her angel's voice a symphony 
Is she in a garden or a meadow fair 
Does the dappled sunlight shine ribbons in her hair? 
Does she sit patiently smiling as she waits for me? 

She's my millionaire girlfriend and she's my life 
Once I finally find her I'll get permission from the wife 
We will all live in our castle high 
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I 

She's s stolen secret from a pirate's chest 
I will wear an ascot and a suit that has a vest 
And I will put it on as I watch gardener mow the lawn 
She's a fairy princess from a song of old 
I will have a toothbrush that is made of solid gold 
And I will watch TV as my manservant flosses me 

She's my millionaire girlfriend and she's my life 
Once I finally find her I'll get permission from the wife 
We will all live in our castle high 
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I 

It does not matter to me if she's pretty 
All that counts is what she's got at Citibank 
Chase Manhattan or even Washington Mutual 

When my search is ended I will cherish her 
She will sign some papers, give me power of attorney 
And what's hers will be mine in perpetuity 

She's my millionaire girlfriend and she's my life 
Once I finally find her I'll get permission from the wife 
We will all live in our castle high 
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I 
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I 
My beloved and my millionaire girlfriend and I
