lyrics

Mister Mayor says, Mister Mayor says, Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"I'll tell it to the East, I'll tell it to the West, I'll tell everyone that I am the best!" Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

Mister Mayor says, "If the price is right, I'll try to sell the day and I'll try to sell the night." Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"Now, if I've got something that you must have, just place your bid, everything's up for grabs!" Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"Cause the parking meters fetched a hefty sum, so I sold 'em on a walk and I sold 'em on a run." Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"Now I'm gonna sell Lake Michigan, you won't be able to drink or swim." Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"If you offer me the sweetest deal, I'll sign anything with my seal." Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"Well I'll sell my children for just one thing, those damned Olympics in 2016." Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"

"But there's only one thing that you can't buy, that's my job, I'll keep it until I die." Mister Mayor says, "I'm guided by the love of gold!"
