It seems my Karaoke Challenge is proving successful so far, with many readers asking me to cover a song they think would be funny with my quirky twist. Whilst I’m getting all of these requests, I’ll keep up my feeble attempts to entertain until I’m travelling and too busy again.
This particular request I couldn’t resist as Kanye West has announced his run for President of America 2020, and I had to do it. Sorry.
Gold digger
Gold digger
They take my money when I'm in need
They’re a difficult friend indeed
Oh, they’re a gold digger
All over the world,
That digs on me
Now, I ain't saying they’re a gold digger
They give me money, which I can’t figure
Now, I ain't saying they’re a gold digger
But they ain't messing with no broke figures
Get down Chris, get down the branch
Get down Chris, get down the branch
Get down Chris, get down the branch
Get down Chris, go HEAD DOWN!
Monzo the bank, met them Money 2020
With a baby Tom Blomfield as he was back then
He said, "I can tell you’re a banker by your charm
"Even so, you seem an interesting man"
“Maybe you could help with our FinTech crew”
I said no as I’m looking for THE ONE that’s true
And my banker told me you have an app they fear
And banks like Lloyds are my cheer
So I gotta take your ideas and your thoughts
And share it with them and steal the stuff you brought
I pulled up in my car and all the bankers got in
We all went to a place where I had to pay
For if you are messing with a bank, then you better be paid
You know why? It’s too much to borrow from them
Then I heard they got my money from bluster
In fact, I hear they mess my money with muster
But then, and then all I can say
Is that I still love them, if they pay
They take my money when I'm in need
Yeah, you’re a difficult friend indeed
Oh, you’re a gold digger
All over the world
That digs on me
Now, I ain't saying they’re a gold digger
They give me money, which I can’t figure
Now, I ain't saying they’re a gold digger
But they ain't messing with no broke figures
Get down Chris, get down the branch
Get down Chris, get down the branch
Get down Chris, get down the branch
Get down Chris, go HEAD DOWN!
