If I were wise, I'd be forgiving
Just like the good book says we should be
If I were young, I'd be forgetful
There's so much of this world to see

But if I had the dough
I'd buy you off slow like china

I would own the goaded back
The golden rule
And you can't afford to stop me
Not if I were unkind to prude

I won't have to say it
'Cause you'd already know
If I had the dough
I'd buy you off slow like china

If I had time then I would bite it
Patience is a virtue I possess
If I resented you, I would hide it
Behind the spiral you would never get

Then when I had the dough
I'd buy you off slow like china

When you spoke to me you'd say
Both thank you and please
You might drive a fancy car
But I would hold the keys

I won't have to say it
'Cause you'd already know
If I had the dough
I'd buy you off slow like china

Like china, like china

When you spoke to me you'd say
Both thank you and please
You might drive a fancy car
But I'd hold all the keys

I won't have to say it
'Cause you'd already know
If I had the dough
I'd buy you off slow like china

Like china
Like china
Like china
Like china
