When I heard the amount of the settlement, a Beatles' song came into my head and has been stuck there ever since -
She Came In Through the Bathroom Window
To get rid of the mental picture of the poor girl trying to climb through a bathrom window, I have tried to think of other, more appropriate songs and came up with -
Just Give Me Money, and
She's Got A Ticket To Ride
Anyone else got any ideas?
Baby You're a Rich Man
Can't Buy Me Love
Devil in Her Heart
Cry baby cry.
Don't bother me.
I should have known better
Misery
you never give me your money..
you only give me your funny paper.
and in the middle of negotiations.. you break down
If you want it anytime I can give it
But you better hurry 'cause it may not last
Did I hear you say that there must be a catch?
Will you walk away from a fool and his money?
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
And I'm not what I appear to be
Of all the love I have won or have lost
There is one love I should never have crossed
She was a girl in a million, my friend
I should have known she would win in the end
And the most obvious:
Money That's What I Want
Happiness Is a Warm Gun
I Don't Want to See You Again
I'm Looking Through You
Not the Beatles but from the same era:
The Zombies, She's Not There...

Will you still need me
Will you still feed me
When I'm 64
she's not a girl who misses much....
I read the news today, oh boy
Strawberry fields forever...
Day after day,
Alone on a hill,
The man with the foolish grin is sitting perfectly still,
And nobody wants to know him,
They can see that he's just a fool,
But he never gives an answer,
But the fool on the hill
Sees the sun going down,
And the eyes in his head,
See the world spinning 'round.
The best things in life are free
But you can keep them for the birds and bees
Now give me money
That's what I want
That's what I want, yeah
That's what I want
Mills/McCartney Settlement
Actually, the second song you mention is called Money (That's What I Want).
I'm Looking Through You
Misery
She's Leaving Home
I Should Have Known Better
Not a Second Time
Rip It Up (the marriage licence)
Run for Your Life
She's Leaving Home
Sour Milk Sea
(The Who's Legal Matter also comes to mind...)
Heather Mills
Quote:If you ain't got no money, take your broke ass home
First thing that came to mind
Honey, can I borrow your leg?
