Once upon a time I had plenty of nothing,
Which was fine with me.
Because I had rhythm, music, love,
Had the clear blue sky and the deep blue sea.
That was when the best things in life were free.
The sun, the stars and the moon above, Then time went by and now I got plenty of plenty,
Which is fine with me.
'Cause I still got love, I still got rhythm,
But look at what I got to go with 'em.
"Who could ask for anything more?", I hear you query.
Who would ask for anything more? Well, let me tell you, dearie. Got my diamonds, got my yacht, got a guy I adore. I'm so happy with what I got, I want more!
Count your blessings, one, two, three
I just hate keeping score.
As long as it's more!
As long as it's more
Any number is fine with me I'm no mathematician, all I know is addition
Keep the number mounting, your accountant does the counting.
I find counting a bore.
(More! More!) I got rhythm, music too, just as much as before
Got my guy and my sky of blue,
Now, however, I own the view.
More is better than nothing, true
But nothing's better than more, more, more
Nothing's better than more. One is fun, why not two?
And if you like two, you might as well have four,
Why not a slew
(More! More!)
And if you like four, why not a few
If you've got a little, why not a lot? Add and bit and it'll get to be an oodle.
Every jot and tittle adds to the pot
Soon you've got the kit as well as the caboodle.
(More! More!) If it's gonna rain, let it pour.
Never say when, never stop at plenty,
Happy with ten, happier with twenty
If you like a penny, wouldn't you like many much more? Or does that sound too greedy?
That's not greed, no, indeedy
Gotta fill your cupboard, remember Mother Hubbard.
That's just stocking the store
(More! More!) Each possession you possess
That's what's soothing about excess
Helps your spirits to soar.
Never settle for something less.
But nothing's better than more, more more
Something's better than nothing, yes!
(Except all, all, all)
Except all, all, all
Except once you have it all (have it all)
You may find all else above (find all else above)
That though things are bliss,
More! More!
There's one thing you miss, and that's
More! More! More! More!
More! More! More.
