Are they singing “mony,” or “bony”?

The meaning of the sound must be interpreted in context, to determine the answer.

I wonder if he gave Stevie Wonder credit for the music. (Pastime Paradise).

Pastime Paradise
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0S4SiLxt1s

They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been wasting most of their time
Glorifying days long gone behind
They've been wasting most their days
In remembrance of ignorance oldest praise

[Bridge]
Tell me who of them will come to be?
How many of them are you and me?

[Verse 1]
Dissipation, race relations
Consolation, segregation
Dispensation, isolation
Exploitation, mutilation
Mutation, miscreation
Confirmation to the evils of the world

[Chorus]
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
They've been looking in their minds
For the day that sorrow's lost from time
They keep telling of the day
When the savior of love will come to stay
[Bridge]
Tell me who of them will come to be?
How many of them are you and me?

[Verse 2]
Proclamation of race relations
Consolation is integration
Verification of revelation
Acclamation, world salvation
Vibration, simulation
Confirmation to the peace of the world

[Chorus]
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a pastime paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
They've been spending most their lives
Living in a future paradise
We've been spending too much of our lives
Living in a pastime paradise
Let's start living our lives
Living for the future paradise
Praise to our lives
Living for the future paradise
Shame to anyone's life
Living in a pastime paradise

One of the great love songs of youth, and happiness, and promise …
(And there’s always that perspective of who he’s really singing to.)

“Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea …”
(He lists some more acceptable conditions for change, but does that imply he's a relativist?)

Well, that explains it.

The lyrics to "As," credited to Stevie Wonder, were actually composed by Christ.
