lyrics

Oh please … Please won’t you buy me a handbag? Pretty please won’t you buy it today? Don’t show me no love, I’ll give you a shove into Prada to buy me a handbag.
Did you hear? Did you hear that they emptied the treasury? All the gold was thrown into the sea. Handbags have become the new currency. (Now let’s get back to little old me.)
I want it! I need it! Must have it now!
I’ll trade you ten pork bellies for my Louis Vuitton. I’ll trade you six barrels of oil. I’ll trade you my mother, I’ll sleep with your brother, as long as I got me a handbag.
Are you worth your weight in handbags? Are you worth your weight in Dior? We can’t pay the rent, our savings are spent, but at least I got me a handbag.
