Heyday

I had a lot of money
And I had a lot sway
Whatever I wanted
I got to do it my way
I had a lot of gumption
I had a lot of will
It took me from gutter
To that mansion on the hill
And no one's gonna tell me no, no, no
I always put on the most amazing show

You should have seen what I was really like
Back when I had the world on a string
You should have seen how great I looked
When I sat down on the throne like a king
In my heyday

I was pretty hungry
And I went for the throat
Didn't matter who I crushed
As long as I could gloat
Got brownstone up on Beacon Hill
Got mansion on the Cape
My bank account is pretty sick
The numbers even make me gape
And no one's gonna ever get in my way
The price's is simply always too steep to pay
