Allan Sherman A Waste Of Money (A Taste Of Honey) Lyrics

I wanted to get
Some new girlfriends
So I went and bought
A Mercedes Benz
A waste of money!
Eight thousand bucks down the drain

I thought the girls
Would get wild and reckless
So I bought cultured pearls
And a diamond necklace
A waste of money!
That cost me four thousand more

They were returned
I got no girls
They repossessed
Both the car and the pearls I styled my hair
Just like Cary Grant's
Bought a pair
Of those new tight pants
A waste of money!
Household Finance took my pants
The female gender
I just don't get it
Just when I'm out
Of both cash and credit
I found a honey!
And this is what's funny
She don't need my money
She works for Household Finance
