(John Elefante / Dino Elefante)
Columbus sailed the ocean blue
To see what he would fine

With visions of another world
They said he'd lost his mind


But when he told them of the land he'd found
A land so rich with gold
To get the treasures on the other side

They left the lad of old to

(Chorus)

Get rich now
Get rich now
Get rich now

Get rich now

Napoleon thought that he could be

The ruler of it all
The things he wanted were so very big
But he was very small


They spread the word throughout the land
That he would soon be king

But his greed and pride got in the way
And he lost everything to


(Chorus)

Oh the president and the generals

Are getting ready for a war
The only thing that they don't know
Is what they're fighting for


They shine their suits of armor
And they tell us to prepare

While they take wealth and freedom
And just leave us standing there


Get rich now
