********************************************************
Once upon a time I had plenty of nothing
Which was fine with me
Because I had rhythm, music, love
The sun, the stars and the moon above
Had the clear blue sky and the deep blue sea.
That was when the best things in life were free.
Then time went by and now I got plenty of plenty
Which is fine with me
'Cause I still got love, I still got rhythm
But look at what I got to go with 'em...
"Who could ask for anything more?", I hear you query
Who could ask for anything more?
Well, let me tell you, dearie:
Got my diamonds
Got my yacht
Got a guy I adore
I'm so happy with what I got
I want more!
Count your blessings
One two three...
I just hate keeping score.
Any number is fine with me
As long as it's more!
As long as it's more...
I'm no mathematician
All I know is addition
I find counting a bore
Keep the number mounting
Your accountant does the counting
More!
More!
I got rhythm
Music, too
Just as much as before.
Got my guy and my sky of blue.
Now, however, I own the view
More is better than nothing, true
But nothing's better than more, more, more!
Nothing's better than more!
One is fun
Why not two?
And if you like two
Might as well have four.
And if you like four,
Why not have a few,
Why not a slew
More?
More!
If you've got a little
Why not a lot?
Add a bit and it'll get to be an oodle
Every jot and tittle adds to the pot
Soon you've got the kit as well as the caboodle
More!
Never say when
Never stop at plenty
If it's gonna rain, let it pour
Happy with ten
Happier with twenty
If you like a penny
Would you like many much more?
Or does that sound too greedy?
That's no greed - no indeedy
That's just stocking the store
Gotta fill your cupbarod
Remember Mother Hubbard
More!
More!
Each possession
You possess
Helps your spirits to soar
that's what's soothing about excess
Never settle for something less
Something's better than nothing, yes
But nothing's better than more more more!
Except all all all!
Except all, all, all...
Except one you have it all
You may find all else above
That though "things" are bliss
There's one thing you miss,
And that's
More!
More!
More! More! More! More! More! More! More!
