Excess Marks the Spot lyrics

Well, I got a black candle

Got a red one too

I burn them both at two ends 

With everything I do

Well, I got to have a Jaguar

It's my inviso light

I'll drive it on through your heart, baby

Now it's out of sight

Ooh, you got to save your pennies 

Till you get old

Searchin' for the pot of gold

A man is measured by the toys he's got

Excess marks the spot

Go for it all if you need it or not

Excess marks the spot

Ooh, two condos in Maui

One in Newport Beach

Got ten cars of every color

Man, it's hard to beat

Well, I wish I had an airplane

Perhaps a Lear Jet

We'll take a flight to the Philippine Islands

Just to win a bet

Ooh, you got to save your pennies 

Till you get old

Searchin' for the pot of gold

A man is measured by the toys he's got

Excess marks the spot

Go for it all if you need it or not

Excess marks the spot

Said my grandaddy died

Left me five million bucks, you know

Excess marks the spot

Yeah, so I threw a big party

I said a party for all our friends

Excess marks the spot

You know, [?]

Any of those big, long shiny, limousines

I got your limousine right here

Excess marks the spot

And then off we flew

I said off we flew to the Virgin Islands

Excess marks the spot

Oh, you got to save your pennies 

Till you get old

Searchin' for the pot of gold

Can't you tell the difference 

'Tween the men and the boys 

Is the price of their toys?

A man is measured by the toys he's got

Excess marks the spot

Go for it all if you need it or not

Excess marks the spot

A man is measured by the toys he's got

Excess marks the spot

Go for it all if you need it or not

Excess marks the spot
