Money Can Buy Happiness

They say money can't buy happiness
but it sure can patch that hole in your roof or your rowboat.
It can buy you a fat neck ring
or your dream dress
it can buy you a tanker of gas 
a new set of whitewalls
to get you to a vision that you've never been.
Tell me the truth
are you happy with your naked 
old maidens finger
or that dated-frayed dress
Are you happy only seeing your favorite dreamy place
turning away from your face in a Highrise magazine.
They say money can't buy happiness or love 
but it can at least buy a teaspoon of attention
and bushels of ass...
a bit of bling to cover that chronic loneliness.
Tell me the truth, are you happy being broke all the time
debt hovering like a twitchy witchy blade
over a greasy neck that's not worth a dime.

With that being said
money can't buy sunshine or time
it may buy an airy ocean front home
but someday that bipolar winds going to blow
and money will never weave wings to the soul.
