Bm        A

(Same verses before D, A, Bm, A) 
I'll be playing basketball with the President 
dunking on his delegates 
then I'll compliment him on his political etiquette 
toss a couple milli in the air just for the heck of it 
but keep the fives, twentys completely separate 
and yeah I'll be in a whole new tax bracket 
we in recession but let me take a crack at it 
I'll probably take whatevers left and just split it up 
so everybody that I love can have a couple bucks 
and not a single tummy around me would know what hungry was 
eating good sleeping soundly 
I know we all have a similar dream 
go in your pocket pull out your wallet 
and put it in the air and sing 
 
D                        A 
I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad 
Bm                            A 
buy all of the things I never had 
D                            A 
I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine 
Bm                             A 
smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
