[Intro: Sting]
I want my MTV

[Drum Solo]

[Verse 1: Mark Knopfler, Mark Knopfler & Sting]
Hah, now look at them yo-yos, that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothing and your chicks for free
Now that ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Lemme tell ya, them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb

[Chorus: Mark Knopfler & Sting]
We got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We got to move these refrigerators
We got to move these colour TVs

[Interlude: Mark Knopfler]
Hoover, move-ah, huh

[Chorus: Sting, Mark Knopfler & Sting]
Got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
He's gotta move these refrigerators
Got to move these colour TVs
Look-ee here, look at it
[Verse 2: Mark Knopfler, Mark Knopfler & Sting]
I shoulda learned to play the guitar
I shoulda learned to play them drums
Look at that mama, she got it sticking in the cameraman
Man, we could have some
And he's up there, what's that? Hawaiian noises?
He's banging on the bongos like a chimpanzee
Oh, that ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Get your money for nothing, get your chicks for free

[Chorus: Mark Knopfler & Sting]
We got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We got to move these refrigerators
We got to move these colour TVs

[Interlude]
*dog howling*

[Verse 3: Mark Knopfler, Mark Knopfler & Sting]
Listen here, now, that ain't workin', that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Money for nothing, and your chicks for free

[Refrain: Mark Knopfler & Sting, Sting, Mark Knopfler]
Money for nothing, yeah
And the chicks for free
Get your money for nothing (What's that?)
And the chicks for free, look at that, look at that
Get your money for nothing (I want my, I want my)
And the chicks for free (Bozos, I want my MTV)
Ah, get your money for nothing (I want my, I want my)
And the chicks for free (I want my MTV)
