Miss Money, Moneypenny
Would you be so kind?
Give me money, Give me plenty
So I can make it to the other side.
Miss Money, Moneypenny
Parlez-vous Francais?
Cause’ I’m runnin’, My train is ready
I’ll send you a postcard from the Champs-Elysees.
I’m a Double-0 Nothing
Wanted by the CIA
But my luck is bound to change
If you’d give me the time of day
Miss Money, Moneypenny
Would you hang my hat?
You know that money that you lent me?
Well I lost it all at Baccarat.
Cause’ I’m a Double-0 Nothing
Wanted by the FBI
But the villain caught me first
Now he expects me to die.
I’m a secret agent but the secret is out
I got caught but I got away
And I’ll be back in Londontown
Just in time to get my pay.
Miss Money, Moneypenny
Would you be so kind?
Give me money, Give me plenty
I’ll send you a postcard from the otherside
*Brandon Warren wrote the bulk of this song. I contributed lyrics in bits of the choruses and bridge.
It was one of those situations that happens quite frequently where one of us approaches the other with an almost fully realized tune, and just needs a bit of help "finishing off" the loose ends.
