[Verse 1] I've seen the future, I can't afford it Tell you the truth, sir, someone just bought it Say Mr. Whispers, here come the click of dice Roulette and blackjack, build us a paradise Larger than life and twice as ugly If we have to live there, you'll have to drug me [Pre-Chorus] Maybe these luxuries can only compensate For all the cards you were dealt At the hands of fate (so tell me) [Chorus] Tell me, tell me How to be (how to be) a millionaire Tell me, tell me How to be (how to be) a millionaire Millionaire, billionaire, trillionaire [Verse 2] Hardly surprising if you might consider Loyalties go to the highest of bidders Want my opinion? I'd give you ten to one Give me a million, a franchise on fun But there are millions who often get nowhere And there's just one secret I think you should share [Pre-Chorus] Maybe these luxuries can only compensate For all the cards you were dealt At the hands of fate (so tell me) [Chorus] Tell me, tell me How to be (how to be) a millionaire Tell me, tell me How to be (how to be) a millionaire Millionaire, billionaire, zillionaire [Pre-Chorus] Maybe these luxuries can only compensate (come on, come on) For all the cards you were dealt, babe At the hands of fate (so tell me) [Chorus] Tell me, tell me How to be (how to be) a millionaire Tell me, tell me How to be (how to be) a millionaire [Outro] Who wants to be a millionaire? I do! I don't! I do! Who wants to be a millionaire? I do! I don't! I've seen the future, I can't afford it
