Mr. President Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you haven't got an ear for music, you haven't got a thing at all
What good is a ton of caviar?
If you haven't got an ear for music, you haven't got a thing at all
What good is a sack of gold
If a jazz band leaves you cold?
What good is a mansion large or small?
If you haven't got an ear for music, you haven't got a thing at all
[2]
What good is a sable or a mink?
If you haven't got an ear for music, you haven't got a thing at all
What good is that extra midnight drink?
If you haven't got an ear for music, you haven't got a thing at all
When I journey to the moon
I won't go without a tune
What good is a party or a ball?
If you haven't got an ear for music, you haven't got a thing at all
You haven't got a thing at all
You haven't got a thing at all
