Lyrics

Mr. Krabs: Life is short and the end is near

It's important to identify what you hold dear

It's clear, Pearl, your daddy always knows best

Pearl: I am not in the mood for a teaching moment right now.

Mr. Krabs: Let me tell you what counts more than all the rest!

Money money matters most

Money money I can boast

Money money make a toast to

Money, money, money! Ha!

Pearl: You just don't understand me! I know we're not the same species but that doesn't mean that money's—

Mr. Krabs: Me money makes funny things funnier

Sunny things sunnier

Nothing's crummier than no bread

Pearl, your daddy always knows best

Pearl: Daddy, would you just listen to me—

Mr. Krabs: Pearl, let me show you how deeply we're blessed

Money money in this drawer

Money money 'round this door

Money money from the floor

Money, money, money! Ha!

Pearl: I should be my daddy's greatest prize

But instead he's got dollar signs in his eyes

Daddy, you just don't understand

All I care about is rockin' out with my favorite band

Oh the feeling that it creates

When I hear the Electric Skates

Mr. Krabs: Can you hear it, Pearl?

Ensemble: Money money money money etc...

Pearl: Daddy, can you hear me?

Can you hear me at all?

Pearl: Daddy!

Can you hear me?

Oh, daddy

Daddy

Daddy can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Daddy

Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy

Daddy!

Mr. Krabs: Money money in the air

Money money everywhere

Money money to the chair

Money

Ha! Money money I'll stay true

Money money just us two

Money money I love you

Money money

Money money, money money, money money, money money

Mr. Krabs: I'm sorry, Pearl, were you trying to say something?

(Pearl cries.)

Pearl: Daddy!

Mr. Krabs: Money!
