This homeless wiseman (yeah, yeah)
He once said to me (said to me)
All the money in the world
It couldn't buy me not a moment of peace (no, no, no, no)
And that car you're driving (yeah)
That goes one thousand speeds (oh)
Gonna take you all the places that you never even wanted to be
And I said

Don't it make you sad sometimes
That you never got that castle in the sky?
And does it make you cry at night
Knowing that you could've lived that life?

He laughed and said, "I'm rich
I'm rich within
Don't need money to define me
Got love inside me
I'm rich
So rich within
Don't need nothing to define me
Got love inside me"

I'm filthy, filthy rich
Filthy, I'm filthy rich
Filthy, filthy rich
Can't you see?

High-school reunion, I ran into my friend Irene
She said, "I heard you got a house up on the hills of Beverly
You must be working nine-to-five hours every week
How do you ever get the time to see your wife and your family?"

And I said, "Don't it make you sad sometimes
That you never got that castle in the sky?
Ooh, and does it make you cry at night
Knowing that you could've lived that life?"

She smiled and said, "I'm rich
I'm rich within
Don't need money to define me
Got love inside me
I'm rich
So rich within
Don't need nothing to define me
Got love inside me"

I'm filthy, filthy rich
Filthy, filthy rich
Filthy, filthy rich
On the inside
