To Be Rich

I want to be so rich
That it will cure my itch
I want to be so rich
That it will make me twitch
I want to be so rich
That I could fix the glitch
I want to be so rich
That you would flick the switch
I want to be so rich
That I could get past any hitch
I want to be so rich
That I could cross the ditch
I want to be so rich
That I could ditch the snitch
I want to be so rich
That I could find a witch
I want to be so rich
That I could tell just which
I want to be so rich
That I’d have a ball to pitch
I want to be so rich
That I’d never miss a stitch
I want to be so rich
That my life I could enrich
And I want to be so rich
That I could never *****

John-Very catchy! I know rich people and most of them are miserable though :) I guess I would more so like to be 'well off'....not quite rich :)
