When I'm not a zombie, I've got lyrics to post.

And guess. I'm just a bit brain-fried atm. I might post some lyrics tomorrow

They can beg and they can plead
But they can't see the light (that's right)
'Cause the boy with the cold hard cash
Is always Mister Right

I thought it was this at first- thought you’d been listening to Magic radio, who have played it much too much recently!

Cos I’m looking for a man
who’s got some money in his hand

Come on and touch the place in me
That's calling out your name
We want each other, oh so much
Why must we play this game

I get out of bed at half past ten phone up a friend who's a party animal.
Turn on the news and drink some tea.
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping.
One day I'll read or learn to drive

It is it is Honey. Nice and easy to ease us into the weekend..
Honeyroar · 12/02/2021 22:52

No not a Whitney. I don’t think she had another hit. Here’s a bit more..

Boy nothing in life is free
That’s why I’m asking you
What can you do for me
I’ve got
Responsibilities
So I’m looking for a man
Who’s got some money in his hand
