Last Of The Big Time Spenders

Well if money makes a rich man Then I might never make the grade I'll be a small time operator If I just get the landlord paid But if time is an indication Of the wealth that I never knew [Chorus] Then I'm the last of the big time spenders Cause I've been spending time on you It takes time to appreciate Lord knows that you can learn to hate it I believe, cause I've been there too When it gets down to desperation You make the best of the situation I can tell, I've seen it through Though it seems like the day is wasted And the nights have been overdue [Chorus] It's been so long since we got together In between it seems to take forever But I'm a dreamer, I'll be there soon It takes time to appreciate All of those that you can learn to hate I believe, I've seen it through You can call me the Great Pretender And in a way it might be true [Chorus]
