Money
Money
Lie for it
Spy for it
Kill for it
Die for it
So you call it trust
But I say it's just
In the devil's game
Of greed and lust
They don't care
They'd do me for the money
They don't care
They use me for the money
So you go to church
Read the Holy Word
In the scheme of life
It's all absurd
They don't care
They'd kill for the money
Do or dare
The thrill for the money
You're saluting the flag
Your country trusts you
Now you're wearing a badge
You're called the 'Just few'
And you're fighting the wars
A soldier must do
I'll never betray or deceive
You my friend but
If you show me the cash
Then I will take it
If you tell me to cry
Then I will fake it
If you give me a hand
Then I will shake it
You do anything for money
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Insurance?
Where do your loyalties lie?
Is that your alibi?
I don't think so
You don't care
You do it for the money
Say it's fair
You sue her for the money
Want your pot of gold
Need the Midas touch
Bet you sell your soul
'Cause your God is such
You don't care
You kill for the money
Do or dare
The thrill for the money
Are you infected with the same disease
Of lust, gluttony and greed? then watch the one's
With the biggest smiles, the idle jabbers
'Cause they're the backstabbers
If you know it's a lie
Then you will swear it
If you give it with guilt
Then you will bear it
If it's taking a chance
Then you will dare it
You do anything for money
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
You say you wouldn't do it
For all the money in the world
I don't think so
If you show me the man
Then I will sell him
If you ask me to lie
Then I will tell him
If you're stealing with God
Then you will hell him
You do anything for money
Anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
Even sell my soul to the devil
Anything, anything
Anything for money
Would lie for you
Would die for you
I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I
have to pay
Ain't it sad
And still there never seems to be a single penny left
for me
That's too bad
In my dreams I have a plan
If I got me a wealthy man
I wouldn't have to work at all, I'd fool around and
have a ball...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
A man like that is hard to find but I can't get him off
my mind
Ain't it sad
And if he happens to be free I bet he wouldn't fancy me
That's too bad
So I must leave, I'll have to go
To Las Vegas or Monaco
And win a fortune in a game, my life will never be the
same...
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money, money, money
Must be funny
In the rich man's world
Money, money, money
Always sunny
In the rich man's world
Aha-ahaaa
All the things I could do
If I had a little money
It's a rich man's world
Money
Get away
You get a good job with good pay and you're okay
Money
It's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team
Money
Well, get back
I'm all right Jack
Keep your hands off of my stack
Money
It's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the high-fidelity first class travelling set
I think I need a Lear jet
Money
It's a crime
Share it fairly
But don't take a slice of my pie
Money
So they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a raise
It's no surprise that they're giving none away
"HuHuh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"

-"one...
'money' in 'e'"
One, two, three, four!
The best things in life are free,
But you can keep it to the birds and bees;
I want money,
That's what I want,
That's what I want, yeah,
That's what I want.
Money don't get ev'rything it's true,
What it don't get I can't use;
Now give me money,
That's what I want,
That's what I want, yeah,
That's what I want.
Your love give me such a thrill,
But your love don't pay no bills;
Now give me money,
That's what I want,
That's what I want, yeah,
That's what I want.
Hey! now give me money,
Whole lot of money,
Lots of money,
Give me money,
That's what I want, want,
That's what I want.
Well, now give me money,
Whole lot of money,
Yeah, give me money,
Whole lot of money,
That's what I want, yeah,
Money high, Money low
Money come, Money go.
Don't worry me
Don't worry me (money don't buy)
The things that we like, the things that we love
The things that we have, so high above
Don't bother me (it doesn't even matter to you)
Don't bother me (money doesn't grow on trees)
Just don't worry!
Now listen!
Suns do shine, moons do glow
Simplicity everyone knows
Don't hurry me (i'm in the middle of a dream)
Don't hurry me (it's not at all the way it seems)
Now!
Money so high, money so low
Money to count, money to go
It won't be there where I go (where is that you*re going to?)
It won't be there where I go (where is that you*re going to?)
Just won't be there! No way!
Do wop...
Da da da...
----
in the background:
A good evening and welcome to a party satirical broadcast
On behalf of the Labour Party, your Chancellor of the Exchequer, Dennis Healey.
Money comes and money goes.
Taxes are high and incomes low,
But you see they don't worry me,
You see it doesn't worry me at all,
It doesn't worry anybody actually.
For example there's an accountant called David Moss,
He's an absolute ----ing disaster,
But he don't worry me.
In fact he worried some people in the Yes group.
And a few others... not me, you see,
You've all been silly billies,
Complaining about high taxation,
But I can tell you quite categorically,
That taxation has never been a problem for me or
Michael Foot - please stop eating those baked beans!
Try and deal with this immigration problem.
Do please, I can't stand it, you see the nig nogs come and the rock stars go,
Jobs get less and dole queues grow,
They don't worry me.
But let's be fair, you see I am alright,
You're all in really a very difficult situation,
But it don't seem to worry me at all.
Now let's have a close look at the financial situation in the country and the home,
And let's face the facts,
I've been up to the North of England,
I hear all the trouble's meant to be,
And for those who are working, things are easy,
And I'm convinced I'm the man who put the second four letters in the word S----horpe.
You see a very good friend of mine,
Who was once a PM -
Well, we'll call him the PM,
He's the Prime Minister, he said,
"Screw anything you can," and I'm trying to do that now with the country.
You see the Tories said "The housewife has never had it so good."
Well I can tell you quite categorically that my wife said she's never had it!
Barbara Castle in fact has tried to look at all inflationary things on the backbench
Well she looked at me, I know!
In fact next week she's going to Bangkok.
Do you feel inflation in your pocket?
I know I do and I'm convinced that Pan's People are at the root of my problem
My main problem these days is that I just can't get a root!
And so ends my party satirical broadcast on behalf of the Labour Party.
[MM Lyte:]
Money - M-o-n-e-y
(Money!)
Money - M-o-n-e-y
(Money!)
[KRS-One:]
M-o-n-e-y, what you need to just get by
Money, honey, ain't it funny?
Money, people wanna die
It seems without money, people cry, people will lie
You cannot deny, without money you can't apply
For anything that catches your eye, I wonder why
The root of all evil, let me teach you, now who am I?
The MC, teachin' my people "Don't live that lie"
You got to get money, but don't let money get you, guy
I can break it down like whatever you want
Whatever you spend your money on strong, yo that's what you flaunt
Spend your money on these honeys, yo if that's what you want
Spend your money on attorneys if you're goin' to court
If I look around your neck I can see what you bought
What, you think you get respect? No, you takin' a short
Yo, you need the money, of course, you need it to live
(Yo, what you put your money on, Kris?) Yo, right on my kids
[MC LYte:]
M-o-n-e-y, don't ask why. It IS the root of all evil
Though very necessary to your livelihood
It's all good when you got enough
Til enough ain't enough and you hit upon rough times
You make your money and I'll make mine
(Yo, we need the...) (Money!)
[KRS-One:]
Don't get me wrong, mistakin' this song
Like money is not important - yes, it is, just be strong
It's the reason for the thievin' and that war goin'on
It's the reason that you seein' all these girls in their thong
It's the reason that the radio's on
It's the reason that you believe if you gotta work from sun-up 'til dawn
It's the cravings that connect you to that money you makin'
Your desire is the fire got you feelin' you slavin'
(Free yourself!) Money doesn't make you the man
(Be yourself!) A man gets his money in credit(?)
Ok, I'm a get this money, really, all day
But not to the point where I'm goin' the wrong way
I'm a put my money down on rides and all that
Hook up the house so me and my spouse can fall back
Investing my knowledge way beyond college
Write books and fly hooks in my cottage
Cheese - Kris bling-blingin'? Yo, please!
Money is an energy that gets what I need
I can understand them cats that rap flossin' and frontin'
It's all good, they from the hood, never had nothin'
They just got they money and everything's sunny
Hear what I'm saying, they preyin', boy, and lookin for bunnies
[MC Lyte:]
Did we floss what we bought
Forgetting that sharing is what we've been taught?
'Cause this here gettin' money is an individual sport
Money can get me in to the same place where years ago
My bros and sisters with black skin
Were confined to the back door and the kitchen
[KRS-One:]
Last verse, where your cash purse
Reach into your wallet, nothin' alloted, that hurts
Breath stinkin' you're thinkin', but can't afford Certs
Need the dollar and baby hollerin' - no work
I don't know how you gonna get the dough
You could become educated, you could become a ho
You could do both, that's like puttin' butter on toast
The bread is the knowledge, butter is what gets you that close
[MC Lyte:]
Money is funny - how a piece of paper can make or break your very existence
Quick as it come, quick as it go - you better know about the ebb and the flow
You get money in droves, trick it on cars and blow
Throw dollars at black queens 'cause, for the dough they'll strip their clothes
And for the right amount of money
A king will pimp his queen into being a ho on a stroll
(The American Dream Is A Pyramid Scheme
A Few Get Rich But Most Get Reamed
I Bought In And I Got Burned
The More I Lost The More I Learned
The Illusion Of Ownership Has So Much Appeal
Motivated By Greed And The Next Big Deal
Its Part Of The Game To Lie And Steal
The More Money The Have The Better They Feel)
[Chorus:]
I Love The Smell Of Money
When Its Growing
You Know It Sure Smells Good To Me
I Think Its Kinda Funny
Me Always Owing
So I Planted Me Some Money Trees
Money Money Money... Love The Smell Of Money(Hahahaha)
(Im Riiich Biatch!!)

[Chorus:]

So I Planted Me Some Money Trees
Money Money Money... Love The Smell Of Money(Hahahaha)
(Im Riiich Biatch!!)
[Verse:]
I Feel Like Richie Rich Aint This A Bitch
My Crop Just Bit The Dust
My Collection Got Ran Up In

Ive Seen Better Days And Im Still Amazed
That A Plant Can Cause This Mess
My Phones Are Tapped The Cops Harass Me
My Car Got Repossessed
Someone Called My Gold And They Say Im Holdin
Just Way Too Many Pounds
I Think Ill Place An Order Then Jump The Border
And Set Up Shop Down South
[Chorus:]
I Love The Smell Of Money
When Its Growing
You Know It Sure Smells Good To Me
I Think Its Kinda Funny

So I Planted Me Some Money Trees
Money Money Money... Love The Smell Of Money(Hahahaha)

Money
It's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team
Money
Get back
But I'm all right Jack
Keep your hands off of my stack
Money
It's a hit
But don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the high-fidelity, first class, travelling set
I think I need a Lear jet
Money
It's a crime
Share it fairly
But don't take a slice of my pie
Money
So they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a raise
It's no surprise that they're giving none away
Yo, I got this plan to make some money
I want you to keep this shit to yourself
At 6:15 a.m, the truck pulls out of the
Post office on Lankershin and Wilsher
Now it makes one stop before it goes to Sacramento
Which is a mail drop-off at First Federal Loan and Savings
I did whatever I could to get by
Slang dope, jack people, hands in the sky
When you livin' on the edge, yeah homie it's a high
You get caught up in the drama and eventually you die
Livin' in a hard world, some are livin' lies
Son you better wise up and open up your eyes
Shit it never easy homie people will connive
Better have a hustle, if you mean to survive
Why you're so greedy, can you tell us all why?
Look homie believe me you're fuckin' metal ply
For the dollar everybody is a target that's real
Talkin' is smog you're fate's signed and sealed
You could be the next one cross 'em in the path
What maybe if you do the math you can avoid the blood bath
All the money that we stole too weak to take greed
Give it to an honest man the money is still deep

For the love on a cash flow
You could live fast and you could die slow
Show where's the can bet your ass you believe it
'Cause niggas that you know try hard to be schemin'
Work hard is fuck for everything to rock
You a dead mother fucker 'fore I get got
Fools got game floss and drop names
My move's faster than a runaway train
Fuck the world don't ask me for shit
Catch you on your knees and you want some dick
Spot a gold nigga with a hairline trigger
Each root they make, their reputations get bigger
For the love of the money, pussy, and drug
Fools change and get all twisted up

Homie for the dollar, you can get yourself killed
He decided to jet it, could happen with no discussion
Straps of all pain fools fuckin' eruptin'
For the green little papers jackin' your neighbors
But what if your neighbor put the arms in his favor?
Picked up the heater to mash you punk bitches
Don't wanna earn shit you wanna jack for the riches

You see the big fat man with a skinny, skimpy blonde
Who lets him kiss her hand
Because he, ooh, breathes diamond rings when he sings
He talks like columbian coffee with cream
It's not, ooh, too, ooh, sweet
Money (x10) yeah
Money makes the world go round round round round
Bom de-dooble dooble bom.... etc.....
Doo bow mow
A blur of cheap hotel rooms and a vibrating bed
It's hot feelings, cold feet, hey, yo, gimme some
Head into the bathroom just to powder her nose
Clip her fingernails and paint her toes
And it's all, ooh, for, uuh, money
Money (x10) yeah
Money makes the world go round round round round bom de-dooble dooble
Bom.... etc.....(again, but different)
She used to be pretty with a real cute face
Dreams and morals and an eternal fireplace
Then in came the shadow man he blew out her light
And now there like so many her life is just a fight
[and now, like so many, there's just a little pilot light]
It's a fight for money
Money (x10) yeah
Money makes the world go rooouuuund
(vocal pains for a solo :)

Elvis' is probably thirty years old
He looks like a solid forty-five
Lewis says he's got a headache
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Take them people back inside
Just can't think of what else to take over
But you can't just can't get up in the morning
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Why fly when you can walk?
Why sing when you can talk?
Why hit the wall when you've just punched the clock?
Oh, why sing when you can talk?
Jeremy's talking about the Bronx
He thinks it's probably a bad place to be
It's gotta be worse than Manhattan
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Take the train on up to the zoo
But don't look back on what you've been through
'Cause everyone's got a Monday
Looks like shit and it feels like America
Looks like shit and it feels like America
It's nice to be liked, but it's better by far to get paid
I know that most of the friends that I have don't really see it that way
But if you could give 'em each one wish
How much do you wanna bet
That they'd wish success for themselves and their friends
And that would include lots of money
That would surely include lots of money
So if there are any of you little green elves sitting out there today
Step right up, wish me old Irish luck
But I also need shitloads of money
And if there are any of you dirty rich old men sitting out there today
Step right up, I'm your lucky fuck
But I'm gonna need shitloads of money
I'm gonna need shitloads of money
I have got to have shitloads of money
Don't get too close now but don't stay too far
See I need you here when inclined to clear the
Head and redefine
Spend a day in my life
You talk about money do you need to advertise
Can you see me laughing
This is no easy ride
And I walk and I talk I'm alive
And I walk and I talk I'm alive am I am I
You get a little closer but won't stay too long
You can take my bread for a life any place
Anytime
Help me out of my chair
Did you think it was funny talking money money
Those reptile eyes
Can you see me laughing
This is no easy ride
Think of all the money with a lad and a girl
Get yourself a home loch the door get along
Get it up try your xxxxxxx luck get a dog
Take a walk what's your point you've played your hand
Money money
Call it anything you want and I won't care
I get money from you
To tickle your whim or blow up your mind
Then I give money to you
And you pay me back in kind
And I gave money to Bill
He pays up my bills and helps me make up my mind
And I give money to Bill
And he will be on my side
Then I gave money to Joe
Cause Bill said he knows he'll pay me back in time
And Bill's gettin'paid to know
If anyone's lyin'
Then Bill said to give it to Hank
Cause Hank owns a bank and he can make it grow
Now ain't those amazing folks
That Bill is lucky to know
Somehow my finances will grow
With the interest I show
In the interest it gives me
And now a piece of paper from me
Won't seem half as flimsy
It's good to be cashed up now and then
But there are times I believe
I was happier when ...
I was so broke, but I didn't care
used to joke 'bout goin' nowhere
I could survive on a string
It can be a curse
Can bring out your worst
I said MONEY won't make you
Happy but -
It sure don't make you sad
Too many people 'round here
Think they've got it made
Overfed, overrated and overpaid
Behaving like slaves to their own greed
Obsessed by material they don't need
I used to survive on a string
It can be a curse
Can bring out your worst
I said MONEY won't make you
Happy but -
It sure don't make you sad
Got a nice surprise in the post
the other day
To help me with some dues
I had to pay
With that Yuletide season comin
' up soon - sing in a happier tune
I'm singin' "White Christmas"
right along with Bing
It can be a curse
Can bring out your worst
I said MONEY won't make you
Happy but -
It sure don't make you sad
won't make you sad
won't make you sad
won't make you sad
won't make you sad
What is inside me
Is caged here beside me
Life is a zoo
I'm labelled him
And it's labelled you
Life is a zoo
Life's a zoo
You are a stranger
But I'm even stranger
What can I do
Life's getting stranger
Strangers are stranger
What can we do
Life's a zooI am a stranger
And you're even stranger
What can you do
Life's getting stranger
A stranger's a stranger
What can we do
Life's a zoo
I am sick and tired and my money's always spent
And though their jobs are killing me their money pays the rent
The fuel of world hate although it's just a seed
But when it grows and flowers it becomes the world's greed
Money for the rich money for the fed
God supplies the money and god supplies the dead
And when you're dead and ready exploited be thy name
Cos after you have money things are never quite the same
I don't care for money and money's not for me
The money fueled this empire and our racist history
Although i'm forced to use it the rules have all been set
But life is not worth living if your soul is in debt
Money for the rich money for the fed
God supplies the money and god supplies the dead
And when you're dead and ready exploited be thy name
I don't need no money, I will stuck to my ideals.
You better get some money, you better get yourself a deal.
I won't change my habits and throw it all away.
No, no, you better keep it all together for another day.
Money - uh, yeah
It only makes me sick and makes the people turn to fools.
It only gives you power and power makes the rules.
Don't wanna be an asshole that sits on dollar bills.
Ha, ha, ha, I know you'll take it no matter how you feel.
Money - uh, yeah.
Nothing will get for free, illusion or reality,
The mirror of your dreams is made of cash.
It drives me wild and drives me crazy,
Makes me fat, and makes me lazy.
Anything you want, anything you need
If I had a little money I would feel okay.
It is money that rules the world,
it is money that lights the day.
It is money that makes it work,
it is money that makes you live!
Money, money, money, money
Give me money -everybody wants some.
Everybody needs some.
I want more, you want more, we want more, they want more.
Nothing you will get for free, illusion or reality.
I don't love you baby
The things you do for money
It is driving me crazy
You know it isn't funny
The talk in every town
But I didn't know it
You in your disguise
But you never showed it
Things in life were free
That's what you got from me
Told your friends that I mistreated you
When it was you who was abusing me
Oh I didn't know
That you'd go so low
I don't like the things you do to me - well!
I was warned about you
But I wouldn't listen
The apple of my eye
Could that be the reason
You magic word was honey
And I shower you with money
Behind my back
You would laugh at me
I was a clown for the world to see
Oh I didn't know
That you'd go so low
I don't love the things you do to me
Oh what a blow
Cause I didn't know
You'd go so low
I don't love the things you do to me
I don't love sugar
The things you do me honey
It is driving me crazy
You know it isn't funny
Oh I didn't know
These things you do for money
I don't love
These things you do for money
I don't love
These things you do for money
I don't love the things you do for money
And I don't think it's very funny
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
You thought you'd come on and amaze me with your money
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
Get flash get cash get phoney
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
You thought you'd come on and amaze me with your money
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
Get rich get stitched get lonely
So come and amaze me so come and amaze me
It takes everyone every son, every dad and every mum
Some find a one and a one turns them on, it's money
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
You thought you'd come on and amaze me with your money
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
Get wheels, get heels, get sloaney
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
You thought you'd come on and amaze me with your money
You thought you'd come and amaze me honey
Get fucked, pissed up, get loaded
So come and amaze me, so come and amaze me
It takes everyone, every son, every dad and every mum
She said, "I'm young enough
I'm old enough to paint a smile
I tasted heaven and hell
Heaven stay awhile"
Good friend is rare find
Their straight talk can ease your mind
A good pimp's gonna rob you blind
Money, money, money
I feel like a pawn in my own world
I found the system and I lost the pearl
It's breaking me down
Well, you don't wake, you don't shake
You just make the sound
Go round and round and round and round
Round and round and round and round
Bleed a little, bleed a little, bleed a little, bleed a little
Oh, 'til your freedom calls you
Somewhere out children laugh
Like meteors rolling down the grass
Mothers pull the night time in
Calling their children with spoons in the wind
Calling their children with spoons in the wind
Calling their children with spoons in the wind
But not for me
She said, "I'm young enough
I'm old enough in the city machine
Where industries fill the fish full of mercury"
She said, "My struggle hurt but it turned me on
When my revolution came, the chain was gone
On my feet 'til the sound of my heartbeat"
Money, money, money
Do you feel like a pawn in your own world?
Found the system and you lost the pearl
Like leaves coming down, you've got to wake, shake
Make your vibe go round and round and round and round
Round and round and round and round
Bleed a little, bleed a little, bleed a little, bleed a little, oh
Bleed a little, bleed a little, bleed a little, bleed a little, oh
Money, money
Make your mind up
Who's going to think for you?
When the time comes
You'll have to see it through
Use your instinct
And take a risk or two
Don't you worry
'Cause you'll know what to do
You can give so
Much to me
But I don't want it
I will be free
For the last time
I'm going out thie door
You don't need me
To help you anymore
Eyes wide open
I see it's different now
Keep your comfort
I'll get along somehow
You can have my money
I don't need it anymore
I don't need your invitation
Down that lonesome corridor
Breakdown
You can have my money
I don't need it anymore
I don't need your invitation
Down that lonesome corridor
Nothing good comes easily
Count the cost, I will be free
You can scream and disagree
I don't want it - I will be free
You can have my money
I don't need it anymore
I don't need your invitation
Down that lonesome corridor
Nothing good comes easily
Count the cost, I will be free
You can scream and disagree

Speakin' about your millions
You don't give a shit of what you're talking about
And by the time you're finished sayin' your stupid shit,
You'll make people sick of hearing too much of it.
You'll think about the good times
The days you were at back of that damn fuckin' line
Some really hate the feeling
But you like to make them suffer when you're running things
I've got no money
So what's the fuckin' deal?
Completely jaded
It's my turn
I've got no money
So what's the fuckin' deal?
Completely jaded...
You'd sit 'em down...and walk all over them
The reason's come to you way too much naturally
Someday we'll be forgotten
But I don't think someday, we'll be forgiving you
A profit never will be
Cuz you're too focused on what you can never see
A fighter never looks good
The battle horse has burned there ain't nothing left...
I've got no money...I'm... BROKE!
Money stole my lady
Fools have a way of making me lazy
Money buy you freedom
Rules have a way of making me crazy
So we grow a little older
With another tale to tell
So we grow a little colder
With another tale to tell
Money make you feel unhappy
Fools have a way of making me crazy
So we grow a little older
With another tale to tell
So we grow a little colder

So you wake up every morning
Just to work and face yourself
But then somebody tells you
That your owned by someone else
So what's it all about
It's money work it out
The people of the world today
So tired and so lost
Their argument for freedom
Is how much does it cost
So what's it all about
It's money work it out
Money, money all around
Seek the game before it drags you down, down
Acting the crime
Stealing the time
Concrete jungle hunters
With one arm bandit eyes
Mother natures army retreats to hide and cry
So what's it all about
It's money work it out
Money, money all around
Seek the game before it drags you down, down
Acting the crime
Stealing the time C
Competition tickets for holidays in space
While armchair aristocrats
Will lead the human race
So what's it all about
It's money work it out
Money, money all around
Seek the game before it drags you down, down
Acting the crime
The best things in life are free, but you can give them to the birds and bees.
I need money.
That's what I want.
(That's what I want. That's what I want.)
That's what I want, that 's what I want.

People get all upset and they shiver and they sweat for money (Money!)
It don't seem to make no difference which a way the wind might blow
They scrimp and they save and
They'll dig an early grave for money (Money!)
They act like maybe they can take it with 'em when they go
People work all their lives and they marry ugly wives-for money (Money!)
There just ain't no tellin' what a money hungry man might do
They cheat and they steal and they murder and they kill-for money (Money!)
Now I've heard tell of some money hungry women too
Bridge:
They say gimme gimme gimme gimme all that you've got

Give it to me, give it to me, I want a lot
I want it all

Ladies of the night get out on the street and fight - for money (Money!)
They'll be standing on the corner freezing in the midnight air
You can take it out in trade
Just as long as they get paid - in money (Money!)
If it's dirty or clean just as long
As it's green they don't care
Bridge:
They say gimme gimme gimme gimme all that you've got
I want your money
Give it to me, give it to me, I want a lot
I want it all
I want it right now
People get all upset and they shiver and they sweat for money (Money!)
It don't seem to make no difference which a way the wind might blow
They scrimp and they save and
They'll dig an early grave for money (Money!)
They act like maybe they can take it with 'em when they go
Bridge:
They say gimme gimme gimme gimme all that you've got
I want your money
Give it to me, give it to me, I want a lot
I want it all
What is inside me
Is caged here beside me
Life is a zoo
I'm labelled him
And it's labelled you
Life is a zoo
Life's a zoo
You are a stranger
But I'm even stranger
What can I do
Life's getting stranger
Strangers are stranger
What can we do
Life's a zoo
I am a stranger
And you're even stranger
What can you do
Life's getting stranger
A stranger's a stranger
What can we do

Talking so many bitches we got bitches on bitches
Way she moving that ass I think the bitch got switches
Pull up to this switch escalade full of killers
Now only thing... escalate full of scriller
Louis v to the bag half a rack for the slap rack
Wiz khalifa's on the coupe I'm talking black and yellow flapjacks
When I talk I be talking 'bout money
My little sunshine sleeps beneath the oak
The forest denizens seem to smile
When I came near she awoke
She gazed at me with eyes of guile
We walked out to the grassy knoll
My heart runs and leaps like a deer
Compared to her the fairest are droll
Her singing in the breeze was all to hear singing,
I love money, money money money
Money money money, tons and tons of money
Money money money, money money money
I love money more than my little honey
My little sunshine sleeps beneath the oak
The forest denizens seem to smile
When I came near she awoke
She gazed at me with eyes of guile
We walked out to the grassy knoll
My heart runs and leaps like a deer
Compared to her the fairest are droll
Her singing in the breeze was all to hear singing,
I love money, money money money
Money money money, tons and tons of money
Money money money, money money money
I love money more than my little honey
Now after hearing those words from my cutie
I was wounded and I wanted to cry
She doesn't like me or my beauty
She started singing and drew neigh
She held my hand and whispered in my ear
You're the only one for me in my life
Now, how much money did you make this year?
Those words cut me like a butter knife. She said
I love money, money money money
Money money money, tons and tons of money
Money money money, money money money
I love money more than my little honey
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
Oh shigdy bop, (bop bop)
I love money, money money money
Money money money, tons and tons of money
Money money money, money money money
I love money more than my little honey
Now I was taken by surprise
Looking at her trying to read her soul
The color of greed was in her eyes
She seemed to be under money's control
Now strolling away she looked back at me
I've seen that look before
Staring at her I came to see...hehehe...
I love money, money money money
Money money money, tons and tons of money
Money money money, money money money
I love money more than my little honey
Well I love money, money money money
Money money money, tons and tons of money
Money money money, money money money
I love money more than my little honey
La, la la la, la la la, la la la
I’m not scared of consequences
Don’t believe in god
I trust this moment
I am helping her, the rest of you are vultures
Where were you when our father passed away
I stayed and helped her pay her bills
She drank her pain away
She’s always been so helpless
The cause of aging is undecided
But she must be stored away
Our family’s always been divided
Why cooperate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money
You’re my sister
But you never came around on Christmases
You travelled, kept great distances
Between you and your family
I’ve been the kind of son I always wanted for myself
My kids are flawed
Look at my ex-wives
I deserve some compensation
The cause of aging is undecided
But she must be stored away
Our family’s always been divided
Why cooperate today?
Oh you smell money, money
Well I hope you find your way
Through every heart wrenching day
With all those shitty decisions that you make
Hell I know the games, I know the games you play
So do you think you got enough time
To open all of your uranium mines
Before yes you go and you poison us all
You know your profit man it's gonna take its toll
And I don't know who you are
I don't know where you come from
I just know it is to hell you're going cos
You pollute everything with you big business
And i know it's all for your money
Hell yeah, all for your money
All for your money
Tell me man it's all for your money
So go now you go and you rape this Earth
You take her for what you think she'd worth
But you take and you take and you take til there's nothing left
I don't call that business, I call that theft
So who do the Hell do you think you are
Why do you got to take things so far
You know you screw the Earth and then you look towards the stars
Tell me man why do you got to take things so far
And I don't know who you are
I don't know where you come from
I just know it is to hell you're going cos
You ruin everything with you big business
And i know it's all for your money
All for your money
Sweeter than honey
All for your Money
Tell me man can you eat your money
Tell me man can you eat your money
Cos that's what's gonna be left, that's what's gonna be left
So tell me man can you eat your money
Business man with your uranium mine,
will you gain a conscience
Politician man, there in your Government,
will you gain a conscience
Media man with all your newspapers,
Who lies must gain a conscience
Prime Minister with all our apathy,
The best things in life are free
But you can keep 'em for the birds and bees

Money,
All for money,
Save your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money
Keep your money
All for money,
Waning patience
People's appetite
Disposition
This possession
Dispossessed from all the attractions,
Dancing bears of eroticism,
Self absorbed delusion
Inclusion of dysfunction
I now await the triumphant
Lost baggage, train station,
The causes of ineptitude
Can be traced to my mandatory down,
The causes of my servitude
Can be traced to the tyranny of
Money,
All for money,
Make your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money
Save your money
All for money,
My final surrender
Away from inclusion
I now await the triumphant
Left baggage, train station,
The causes of ineptitude
Can be traced to my mandatory down,
The causes of my servitude
Can be traced to the tyranny of a down
The causes of ineptitude
Can be traced to my mandatory down,
The causes of my servitude
Can be traced to the tyranny of
Money,
All for money,
Make your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money
Save your money
Make your money,
Hide your money,
All for money,
Make your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money,
Save your money,
All for money,
You can put it in the bank or hide it in a jar
Scrap it up, save it up for a rainy day or blow it on a car
It don't matter if you're rich or just plain dirt poor
Totally set, swimming in debt, everybody wants a little more
Moola, greenback, bread, dough, cash, yeah money
Gotta have gold, pearls, diamond rings
Houses, boats, cars, Ka-Ching, money
Then Benjamin Franklins, Abraham Lincolns
Hamiltons, Washingtons, I know what you're thinking, money
You can bet on a race, win it in the mail
Do a lot of bad stuff and if ya got enough, it'll keep you out of jail
It'll rent a limousine, drive you to the mall downtown
Where you can eat till you pop or shop till you drop
But don't leave home without
Moola, greenback, bread, dough, cash, yeah money
Gotta have gold, pearls, diamond rings
Houses, boats, cars Ka-Ching, money
Then Benjamin Franklins, Abraham Lincolns
Hamilitons, Washingtons, I know what you're thinking, money
It's printed, stacked and stamped before it gets to you and me
And it might be made out of wood but it don't grow on trees
Moola, greenback, bread, dough, cash, yeah money
Gotta have gold, pearls, diamond rings
Houses, boats, cars Ka-Ching, money
Then Benjamin Franklins, Abraham Lincolns
Uh, hmm
Hurry up a bit
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus: x3]
I like the way you do it, when you do it
When you doin, what you doin
Check this out right here, son
We about to move to make you feel some
A lot of positive vibrations to build from
'Cause all I wanna do is lose some and win some
Have a little of prosperity and then some
Livin my life handsome, has always been a dream but
Now it's time to really achieve by all means (Bust it)
I keep my shit, plus thirty in between
When an arm reach out to grab the supreme
'Cause I won't stop, and AP won't stop
And Tab won't stop until we reach the top
That means we won't quit, so we stay thick so you can enjoy it
I know you like the way it's goin down, honey, honey
I know you like the milky-mellow sound, honey, honey
Doin this ain't all about money, money
I know you like the way I sound, right, right
[Chorus x4]
As I enter the room I absorb the mood
Positive vibe supplied by a positive crew
And negativity exist and you must acknowledge
You can be intelligent and never go to college
'Cause the way we live in society
It ain't really the way that it's supposed to be
And don't get close to me if you're contaminated
Take a picture of your soul and get it laminated
Put them in your wallet next to your money
Money represents your whole and soul represents your honey
Ain't got honey then you ain't got bees
And if you ain't got no money I'ma still MC
Then empty L-O-V-E all over the track
Once you R-E-D then you never go back
'Til the end of studio with the Peas as Black
With Adam, Taboo, and alligator APL De AP
[Chorus x4]
I wanna travel the world and stop on every city
Rejuvenate your burnt out sea put down your Philly for a sec
Close your eyes and don't fret
Listen to the audible sounds and just let
Your soul feel the free feelin
Reprovide you with the ride, free fallin
To make your heart beat, skip, hipnotize you and
APL take you on a trip where your mind's at ease
Forget ballin 'cause I won't quit, and Will won't quit
And Tab won't quit so you can enjoy it
That means we won't stop
And I won't stop until we reach the rop
I'd rather be ready for the future
Do it for yourself 'cause no one else will suit ya
I juxtapose for mine to maintain
And segregate myself from evil and pain
Credit cards don’t mean a thing
Canary diamonds on a wedding ring
I’ll just say it, cause I mean it
Baby I love you
Be there for me in my time of need
Find other ways to fill my fantasy
And just say it, when you mean it
Baby I love you
It might seem like money
Money’s got it all
But money still could fall babe
It ain’t fail proof
Like our love is
No tennis bracelet shining on my wrist
There’s more important things on top of my list
So just squeeze me, and believe me
Baby I love you
If I could take back every word I said
If I could rewind our story
Make it easy instead
I wouldn’t change it
Baby baby baby I love you
It might seem like money
Money’s got it all babe
But money still could fall babe
It ain’t fail proof
Like our love is
[x2]
Oh baby, come away with me
It will be a great escape
Escape material things
Our love will last a lifetime babe
Our love and the air we breathe
Are the last things for free
It might seem like money
Money’s got it all babe
But money still could fall babe
It ain’t fail proof
Like our love is

Her food, her clothes, her car, her dream
Freedom can't invest itself,
It's all a game for someone else.
One thing sure, it's real you see
When you got conspiracy.
Money grubs,
Money greeds,
Money chops,
Money speeds,
Money breaks,
Money burns.
Wait a minute! Wait a minute!
It's only money.
It's only money.
It's only money.
(feat. Beenie Man)
Money don't say you love me
Cash won't make me stay
And I can leave the same way
I came here with my own things
And if you really cared babe
You would spend your time
If you don't understand
You can't afford mine so
Ain't a pre-madonna
So I can't fall in love with material things
You need to offer more than chains and dimond rings
I need to know that theres a place for me deep in your heart
I don't give a damn, 'bout your credit card so
Money don't say you love me
Cash won't make me stay
I came here with my own things
And I can leave the same way
And if you really cared babe
You can't afford mine no
You would spend your time
If you don't understand
I must admit it I was fine with your talkin' an gifts to start
Now all thats wanted is to know I got your heart
I don't really care, for your ammount a' dough
I have no idea, 'bout where this is gonna go
Money don't say you love me
Cash won't make me stay
I came here with my own things
And if you really cared babe
And I can leave the same way
You would spend your time
If you don't understand
You can't afford mine no
So you think I got a price tag on me?
Just a' flash your cash and your all I see (all I see)
Well let me tell you something you couldn't be more wrong about me.
All your fancy cars they just don't turn me on, you got me wrong
Make all the money that you can coz money don't make a good man
Money don't say you love me
Cash won't make me stay
I came here with my own things
And I can leave the same way
And if you really cared babe
If you don't understand
You would spend your time
Money can't buy my love
You can't afford mine no
Free
Feels a lot better that I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good to be
Free to do what I wanna do
So I'm getting out on the town tonight
Gonna say good bye to you
Get on back to feeling right
Time for me to be cutting loose
Getting out of that noose, you had on me
Free
Feels a lot better that I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good
Free to think what I wanna think
Free to come up with my own plan
I'm gonna get myself a big ol' drink
Celebrate being my own man
Hanging out in this redneck bar
It's all good as far as I can see
Free
Feels a lot better than I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good to be
I've been wrapped up tied down
Been lost but I found
I'm the kind of man that needs to be free
Free
Feels a lot better than I thought it would
Free
Never knew it felt so good to be free
Money, get away.
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay.
Money, it's a gas.
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team.
Money, it's a crime.
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie.
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today.
But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise that they're
And I can see it when you borrow
Those words don't carry you down
And I can feel it, All you
Sorrow, those words mean
Nothing to you now
Money, for a while
Money gone give ya some of it
Live the life of style
Money for the greed
Pulling strings, pushing nothing
Diplomatic friend
I guess you got it good now
I can't get nothing from you now
So won't you give it?
Give it to me, money
Money, across the seas
Turning lives into dividends
Give it up to me money
The color green
Turning gears of consumption
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round (Money)
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
It doesn't matter if you're up or down
'Cause money makes the world go round
Say what you will because you know it's true
No hundred dollar bill, no fun for you
Dream of your life as your days go by
Trapped in a job 'til the day you die
Those with the dollar are those with the power
Getting more clearer every minute and hour
Keep on your path hanging on by a thread
With anyone's luck you might get ahead
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round (Money)

Every morning I wake up by your side
Ohh my feeling is so strong I cannot hide
I want to hold you every second that I live
And when you ain't next to me I get possessive
You make me happy and you buy me things
Cars and chicks and diamond rings
All the stuff that is blinkin'
Money, ohh money
Be my baby
Drive me crazy
Money, ohh money
Wanna hold you
Just like I told you
Some people say that money isn't everything
I tell them no, look, you also need that diamond ring
And a ton of gold and a lot of shares
Your honey she wants a private jet
Man who cares
You satisfy me and you turn me on
And that is why I sing this song
My dream is to own a money money factory
So pay me
Money, ohh money
Be my baby
Drive me crazy
Money, ohh money
Wanna hold you

I told you, I told you, I told you
I'm gonna, gonna gonna hold you
For the rest of my life
Hey you shouldn't go away
'Cause you are so beautiful
I told you I was gonna hold you
I stay to watch the sidewalks,
being cleaned up by the dustmen
Chilly winds under my collar
and I walk and I walk and I walk
In Amsterdam and New York,
in cities and in forests
At least I'm not bored yet
and I walk and I walk and I walk and I walk
The shoes are almost worm out,
the sheets are dry and empty
Let go of prejudice, let go of cleverness
and open up your heart mate
And let all flow in there freely,
no matter in what form
Perhaps somedat it'll touch you
And I love to see you crumble
I love to see you cry
And I wake up feeling lonely, I let the sunshine in
I know you're not the only, and I really don't care
One time per minute is enough for me,
one time per minute is just what I need
Don't leave me stiff and cold,
This is for all you shoppers out there...
The best things in life are free
But you can keep them for the birds and bees
Give me money
Thats what I want, thats what I waaaaaaaaant yeah
Thats what I want
Your lovin gives me a thrill
But your lovin don't pay my bills
Give me money
Thats what I want, thats what I waaaaaaaaant yeah
Thats what I want
Money don't get everything its true
But what it don't get I can't use
Give me money
Lotsa money
Thats what I waaaaaaaaant yeah
Thats what I want
Give me money
Lotsa money
A whole lotta money
Just give me some money
Thats what I waaaaaaaaaant yeah
Thats what I want
Give me money
Lotsa money
Just give me money
A whole lotta money
Thats what I waaaaaaaaaant yeah
Thats what I want
No vamos a ser el que permanecen en el interior solo
No vamos a ser la persona que se sienta allí por el teléfono
Tenemos una reputación, vamos a temblar un día
No vamos a ser los que den la vuelta y se alejan
No se admitirán reservas
No hay dudas
No hay reacciones adversas
Sólo celebraciones
No necesitamos dinero para pasar un buen rato
C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon
Olvidar nuestras preocupaciones y hacer lo que nos gusta
C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon
No vamos a ser el que acaba hablando con nosotros mismos
No vamos a ser el que sé acaba de sentarse en el estante
No tenemos educación, pero nos encontramos con un camino
No vamos a ser los que den la vuelta y se alejen hoy
No se admitirán reservas
No hay dudas
No hay reacciones adversas
Sólo celebraciones
No necesitamos dinero para pasar un buen rato
C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon

Cuando éramos jóvenes tuvimos nuestra hambre
C'mon C'mon C'mon C'mon
No necesitamos dinero para pasar un buen rato
Some folks think I'm greedy and I just take from you
And if I say it's true now, what good would that do?
And if I wanted to be funny, I could say that all the money
That you spent on me was just from fraud
And if I wanted to be bitter, I could say that little by little
All you did for me was no good
I didn't lose your money, I didn't lose your money
Oh no your money just lost, you brought me up this way
When just a little bit of love might have changed my ways
Some folks help the needy, me I just help myself
And if I shared with you now, it would steadily decrease my wealth
And if I saw you on the streets with worn out shoes upon your feet
I wouldn't spare you the prices of a cup of tea
I know you brought me from the gutter, helped me earn my bread
And butter but I have a lousy memory
I didn't lose your money, oh no, I didn't lose your money
I didn't lose your money, oh no, your money just lost
You brought me up this way when just a little bit of love
Might have changed my ways
When just a little bit and just a little bit and just a little bit
And just a little bit and just a little bit of love, love
For the love of what...
Uh huh, Untertainment
Charli Dangerous
H-Class, little E
Uhh uhh
Verse One: Charli Baltimore
I don't know if it's the pretty face or the expensive taste
That got everybody wantin' to touch me like Case
Feels So Good like Mase, to pull over
Anywhere I want, diplomats on the Rover
The way I put it on a nigga sober
I have 'em comin' back, knockin' on my door like Johovas
Ya'll already know that Charli's in charge
Weekly massage, platnuim and gold cars
Money stashed in NY to Witchitaw
And I stay with my niggas cause you know how bitches are
Aggy, cause they baby daddy wanna bag me
That's why I never leave home without the 44
Ya'll hoes can't do nothin' to me
I got this game wrapped like a dubee
Pinned up in what?
Charli rappin' about, I really got
And it ain't that I'm stuck on myself, I'm really hot
Chorus
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (gots to have it, eh-heh)
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (really need it, yeah)
Verse Two: Charli Baltimore
Yo yo yo, gimme the money
Rich bitch be swimmin' in money
I need Jet Ski's in mind, can't tease a dime
Lookin' in the mirror, feeling pleased with the shine
Lady Rolex for the time, the class is "S"
Wear the ice on the bra of my chest
When the money ain't right I go far to the left
Niggas wanna play games then Charli direct
Wanna Long Kiss Goodnight, don't hold ya breath
Bitches know I'm the shit with my MAC lipstick
Crushin' the player haters with a purple navigator
Shoes alligator, my bag is too
If I was broke like you, I would be mad like you
But you can come work for Charli, a boss with a body
Ask anybody, I could take over Gotti
Poo by the poo while you just another hottie
Niggas roll bricks that'll stay if it's notty
Chorus
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (gots to have it, eh-heh)
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (really need it, yeah)
Verse Three: Charli Baltimore
Uh huh, yo when you look you see the slim waist leavin' no trace
Cause shit for no Charli will be in the breifcase
Yeah Long Kiss Goodnight, Baltimore get it right
For the cash, pop out the window and shoot through the ice
Ain't no love here, just the black gloves here
Check it, and I don't get by with nothin' I can't leave in 30 seconds
But my kids, they think mommy a teacher
They don't know, for the love of this
I make the whole world tre` dough
Bingo, get 'em ready for school like nothing happen
Here's a apple for the teacher, tell 'em mommy said "Hi"
Bet he won't fail you no more, one more "F" and he die
Even with my nails done, I can take guns apart son
So when they come lookin' for this reporter broke Un
Dealt with birds, but I had to move on
But for none of these I tatto the little P-pac on my arm
Ask Un how the ones be when he advance me dough
So I put out mines and tell dawg keep yours yo
For real...
Chorus
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (gots to have it, eh-heh)
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (really need it, yeah)
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
For the love of money (gots to have it, eh-heh)
For the love of money (dollar bills ya'll)
Money...Money
Money makes the world go around
...the world go around
...the world go around.
Money makes the world go around
It makes the world go 'round.
A mark, a yen, a buck or a pound
...a buck or a pound
...a buck or a pound.
Is all that makes the world go around
That clinking, clanking sound...
Can make the world go 'round
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money...
If you happen to rich
And you feel like a night's entertainment
You can pay for a gay escapade.
If you happen to be rich and alone
And you need a companion
You can ring (ting-a-ling) for the maid.
If you happen to be rich
And you find you are left by your lover,
And you moan and you groan quite a lot
You can take it on the chin,
Call a cab and begin to recover
On your 14-karat yacht! WHAT!?
Money makes the world go around
...the world go around
...the world go around.
Money makes the world go aroung
Of that we both are sure...
*rasberry sound* on being poor!
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money...
When you haven't any coal in the stove
And you freeze in the winter
And you curse to the wind at your fate.
When you haven't any shoes on your feet,
Your coat's thin as paper,
And you look 30 pounds underweight
When you go to get a word of advice
From the fat little pastor,
He will tell you to love evermore.
But when hunger comes to rap,
rat-a-tat rat-a-tat at the window
*knock knock* (at the window)
Who's there? (hunger) oh, hunger!!
See how love flies out the door...
For, money makes the world go around
...the world go around
...the world go around.
Money makes the world go 'round
The clinking, clanking sound of...
Money money money money
Money money money money...
Get a little, get a little
Money money money money...
Mark, a yen, a buck or a pound,
That clinking, clanking, clunking sound,
Is all that makes the world go 'round,
Money let's me fly to Paris for lunch
And money puts caviar on the crackers I munch
It'll let me buy all kinds of expensive this and that
But I'll tell you a secret about money
I been keepin' under my designer hat
You know, money ain't what I need
A dollar bill can't give me kiss
When a little kiss is all I need
It can't take me for a ride in the country
Or walkin' in the rain
Money never feels any joy
Honey it sure don't feel any pain
I don't need money, all I need is you, oh, oh
Oh, oh, 'cause honey, honey
Honey without you I'd be dining alone
Surrounded by those things I bought
And they still don't make my house my house
What good is drinkin' your coffee from a costly cup
If you're drinkin' it all by yourself when the sun comes up
You know, money ain't what I need
A dollar bill can't give me kiss
When a little kiss is all I need
It can't take me for a ride in the country
Or walkin' in the rain
Money never feels any joy
Honey it sure don't feel any pain
I don't need money, all I need is you, oh, oh
Oh, oh, 'cause honey, honey
Honey without you I'd be dining alone
All I need is you, oh, oh, oh, oh
Honey, honey don't need money
Before I die I'd like to do something nice
Take my hand and I'll take it for a ride
You hit me yesterday because I made you cry
So before I die let me do something nice
I want to buy you something but I don't have any money
I don't have any money
And if I have a car I would trade in my car
If I had a gun I would trade in my gun
and we ran from the country [?] the city
Well there's something to be done [x4]
I want to buy you something but I don't have any money
[Featuring: J. Black]
[Intro - J Black:]
They sell out, or buy in
Put their lives on the line and call it grinding
Without a second thought, now he's doing 5 or 10
Money talks, its murder for hire hear the sirens
You smell the envy in the air, everything is fair
This is war, street dreams are made, it's not a game
[Verse 1 - Jay Rock:]
Motivated by money, money is mesmerizing
Many are murdered for it while mayhem is exercising
Money is Morpheus, and might pay your mortgages
Plus the morgue got some more of it
That embalmment fluid merging through your muscles immortaless
Philosophy rules, if your mustard is mean then your material views
Will put a misery on the broke
Majority manifests, a mission before they mope
For math we do the most, observing the optimist, opposites do attract
Operation for evil, its obvious for attack
Obedience is a must but its hard to obey
When your optics ain't saying no opportunities pay
It might be over a dice game, might be over a new chain
Might be over an old bitch, or you owe someone old change
You open for open game, then open your ears
It's not an option it's an order you get shit clear about money!
[Hook - J Black:]
The things people do for the money
And you might just lose your soul
And some will give their whole life
For the money, yep for the money
Will you give your whole life, for the money, for the money
[Verse 2 - Jay Rock:]
The negatives are normal when you knee deep
When nice sins get stabbed with a knife in or shot with a nine
The neediest the nosiest, they always trying to be friends
And if you naive you should notice all the signs
They known to turn naughty, might gain notoriety
But your nemesis is lurking through the party
No exceptions, no time to exit
Your neighbours is near, now you hearing noises
Say you got a death wish, everything is everything
Well equity is evident, find yourself establishing
Etablishment executives, street entrepreneurs
Examined in they estimate, extracurricular drug activities the testament
Taste the work, excellent, fiends excersing dope
To the head estrogen, entertain I have a hope
Intertwined with cut throats, enter when you please
Keep your eyes open its easy to be deceived about money
[Hook]
Why the say money is the root of evil?
Because when you got too much of it here comes the root and evil
So tell me why money keeps you satisfied
Do it keep food on your table, do it keep you hell-a fly?
Why, why is money always on your mind?
Because the less fortunate don't have money all the time
Why money got niggas out there doing time?
Cause snitches getting paid for police to drop dimes
Why bitches set niggas up for the money?
Pussy'll get you killed nigga don't think its funny
Why niggas sell crack to they momma for the money?
Money will have you snitching while your family be hungry
And why envy a nigga who getting money
When you got the same opportunity to get it dummy, yeah
It's just a thought for your mental my nigga pay attention
Get rich or die trying just know you can't take it with you
I'm talking money!
I am sick and tired and my money's always spent,
and though their jobs are killing me, thier money pays my rent.
The fuel of world hate, although it's just a seed,
but when it grows and flowers, it becomes the world's greed!
money for the rich, money for the fed,
god supplies the money and god supplies the dead!
And when yer dead and ready, "exploited" be thy name,
'cuase after you have money things are never quite the same!
I don't care for money, and money's not for me,
the money fueled this empire and our racist history.
Although I'm forced to use it, the rules have all been set.
But life is not worth living when yer soul is in debt!
MONEY KILLS.
MONEY RAPES.
MONEY LIES.
What? What? Money stretch
Lil' Zane, what'cha saying?
ATL's finest, what? What?
Man you can check my lifestyle
And see that I'm quite wild
Seven twenty-eight night child
Universal and versatile
You study my style
Trying to live spiritual
And y'all looking now
I can see right now
Y'all will never understand me
I call my best friend my family
Until they cross me
Alcohol and weed cost me
So I limit it, running niggas over
Like Emmitt did without a squad
Drag you about a hundred yards
Many bumps and scars
Pull out in the hottest cars with my entourage
Smoke more L's than Debarge
With connects worldwide like Macintosh
I practice living large
Niggas out of town don't understand these kids
(Say what?)
Niggas comin' to get me can't find where I live
I got two or three cribs stack the mill in the mill
Y'all get none of this dough shit y'all fiends stay ill
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
It's not a game
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
Now throw your hands up
Name rings up in Hollywood
But I'mma true nigga, I'mma stay Hollyhood
I never change, might be a little busy though
A little nigga from a big ass city yo
I love the dough
Give me hits, give me more chips
I stay legit so the feds can't tell me shit
I came in with nothing to lose
Now I put my heart into making you move
I'm far flung and the charts
Say I'm number one
You number two, nigga
Check on the Billboard
Who under who, nigga?
Far from an amateur, a money maker
Leave your chick alone with me
I bet I'll take her
The game's taught me one thing
Don't let her break you
Money make the world go 'round
And the girls go down
And even paralyzed niggas gonna feel me now
For you nerds that study my words, ya heard
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
(None of us fuck around)
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
Now throw your hands up
You steady being on the corner right
Niggas ain't seen me in a while
You probably thought I died
You devils love to see a nigga down and teary eyed
I call you idiot 'cause you don't know me really yet
I'm from the ghetto and getting dough is all I know
I'm on the low, I'm a mystery to 5-0
'Cause they don't know
Damn my check is caught in studio
Business is lovely, see me in the videos
Bitches wanna fuck me, worldwide nigga ride
I'mma about to go to where
Some people call the other side
And live my life in paradise, keep my family tight
But I can't keep the way I'm going
If the dough ain't right
My last days I can't live my life inside a cage
I'm getting money and you hataz don't do nothing for me
Either you with me or against me
Nigga, let it show, I get the dough
Non-stop when the track's hot
And you know, what? Now what?
I ain't even gonna rhyme no more
Y'all get the picture
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up
Bustin' rounds lay it down
Money stretch like a rubber band
So wrap the grands up
Catz got beef with me
Go call your menz up
Coming up unexpected
Fucking your plans up

Tony's mad, he got the sack
He's walking home with just the shirt on his back
Billy bought a corner store
Went belly up and moved home once more
Zitas smile made her day
Got her teeth punched out
No more kiss for pay
Money says it's alright. It's alright
Money says it's alright
Money money money whisper it all night
Moneys says
Little Ray walked home from school
Lost his bag with his shoes
Bet he's dad aint cool
Honey drove her daddys car into the wall
Straight into the mall
Ended up at city hall
Eddy hears he's lost it all
Market went down
But Eddy's been round
And he knows who to call
Money says it's alright. It's alright
Money says it's alright
Money money money whisper it all night
Moneys says. Moneys says
Money says it's alright
Money money money whisper it all night
Moneys says
Days on end fuck the loss
Nothing's gained without the cost
Havana days is a shifty thing
You get by
You just don't attach the string
Money says it's alright. It's alright
Money says it's alright
Money money money whisper it all night
Moneys says. Moneys says
Money money money whisper it all night
Moneys says. Moneys says
Play my music high
And its happening
Like to see them smile
When I start to sing, Im
Sick and tired of
People doing this for the dough
I know we all need and inc but Im
Could be independent only in my mind
This is my life I love what I do
My passing is my drive, make me continue
I know I dont do it for the money
For the money, for the money
Look at the bling they put on my arm
Material things I like em but I
Really dont care about the money
About the money, about the money
I dont care about the money
He takes me to see all these fancy places
When I be fine and we just
today yeah
Im enjoying but I could easily live without
The luxury, all I need is love
My inner peace and my Keys are enough
This is my life I love what I do
My passing is my drive, make me continue
I know I dont do it for the money
For the money, for the money
Look at the bling they put on my arm
Material things I like em but I
Really dont care about the money
About the money, about the money
I dont care about the money
I really dont want all the money
About the money, about the money, about the money
This feeling I cannot describe it
And from the outside you cant see
But for the few out there who get it
My first love is melody
I realized most of us are different
And in this world we gotta survive
Money can take us only so far
I need more to satisfy my heart
This is my life I love what I do
My passing is my drive, make me continue
I know I dont do it for the money
For the money, for the money
Look at the bling they put on my arm
Material things I like em but I
Really dont care about the money
About the money, about the money
I dont care about the money
I dont care, no I dont care
About the cash and the dollar bills
This is my music
This is my life I love what I do
My passing is my drive, makes me continue
I know I dont do it for the money
For the money, for the money
Look at the bling you put on my arm
Material things I like em but I
Really dont care about the money
About the money, about the money
I dont care about the money

Money
( Michael Grimes )
In a room in the back
Is the hand of a man
He can get what you need
He does it fast as he can
When you step on the street
And you got what you came for
You got to scare up the money
Because you'll always need more
Demons and devils and a hundred dollar bill
Ride the rail to the scale, but you never get your fill
You never saw it coming till the knock on your door
When the devil comes in to even the score
I heard they're looking for you
Overheard what they said
If you don't get the money
You'll be walking round dead
Demons and devils and a hundred dollar bill
Ride the rail to the scale, but you never get your fill
You never saw it coming till the knock on your door
When the devil comes in to even the score
Demons and devils and a hundred dollar bill
Ride the rail to the scale, but you never get your fill
You never saw it coming till the knock on your door
When the devil comes in to even the score
In a room in the back
Is the hand of the man
With his finger on the trigger
What’s the difference between gold and gold plated?
What keeps the Ivy league and rec league separated?
Educational access?
There’s roaches on the mattress!
Why does one become a ho and not an actress?
Get it, make it, split it, take it
Spend it, use it, lend it, abuse it
Need it, want it, save it, flaunt it
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme
Just how far would you go to get some money?
Some brothers become cold-hearted niggas over money
Others turn to corner prophets trying to turn a profit
Or aim their loaded pocket rockets at ocular sockets
Dollars, Euros, Pounds
They all make the world go ‘round
Stack up enough change
And exchange it for some thangs
Buy a shiny suit
Two-thousand-dollar boots
Yeah in G-d we trust
‘Cuz G-d supports our lust for...
You need it to get it
Spend it on some lotto tickets
You’re lonely without it
When you’ve got it
Then they kick it
They try to dick you for it?
Go outside with signs and picket
The most self-proclaimed righteous turn wicked over...
It’s the symbol of another nations occupation
And you’d probably laugh if I mentioned reparations
What was the purpose of that middle passage destination?
This money I made up when I was ten
Now I'm singing it once more again
It's something pure and innocent
I wanna go back in time
When all that mattered was
The music I made
And if you want to survive
In this jungle that we're in
You better tell the truth
At least to yourself
Whatever it is that you do
It will come right back to you
So don't you dare to put your
Conscience on the shelf
Now it's all about money
All about cash and getting paid
I don't wanna go on this way
Now it's all about money
All about sex, and getting laid
It doesn't matter what you say
There's so many people out there
Thinkin' only of cash
Makin' music they really despise
And I can never say
I haven't done it myself
But it's time to get away
From those lies
And if you want to survive
In this jungle that we're in
Whatever it is that you do

Money, get away
Get a good job with more pay and you're okay
Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team.
Money, get back
I'm all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack
Money, it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the high-fidelity first class travelling set
And I think I need a Lear jet.
Money, it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're
giving none away.
Away, away, away
Huhuh! I was in the right!
Yes, absolutely in the right!
I certainly was in the right!
You was definitely in the right. that geezer was
cruising for a Bruising!
Yeah!
Why does anyone do anything?
I dont know, I was really drunk at the time!
I was just telling him, he couldnt get into number 2.
he was asking
Why he wasnt coming up on freely, after I was yelling
Screaming and telling him why he wasnt coming up on
freely.

That’s all I have it’s my money
That’s what you call me for honey
I’m not gonna give it
That’s what I’m working for (money)
Why do I find it so funny
I don’t know and it’s all right
My favourite Abba song; money!
My satisfaction, let it be
Golden teeth and Cadillacs
I got no ennemies
No time to waste, no limits, no compares
Don’t mind about jealousy,
It makes me laugh, I just don’t even care
Like electricity, it turns me on
I’m happy as a child
Come come Hey ! come with me, I’ll show you how
It makes you feel somebody else
Money
That’s all i have it’s my money
That’s what you love me for honey
Thanks but i ‘m not givin’ it
That’s what i ‘m living for, money!
Why do you think i’m so heavy
I can’t change, i’m always right
I’ts my religion, my story
My fascination, my hobby
My blood is expensive wine
Got so much energy, i hang around and choose the things i like
Your wife‘s in love with me
If she comes down we should have some good time
No questions about me, the less i say the more you talk of it
That’s my philosophy and you should try
It makes you feel somebody else
Shout shout, check it out
Come come, get around
You oughta come with me

If you haven't any coal in the stove
And you freeze in the winter
And you curse on the wind
At your fate
When you haven't any shoes
On your feet
And your coat's thin as paper
And you look thirty pounds
Underweight.
When you go to get a word of advice
From the fat little pastor
He will tell you to love evermore.
But when hunger comes a rap,
Rat-a-tat, rat-a-tat at the window...

Things worked out better than we had planned
Capital from boy, woman and man.
We were like ink and paper
Numbers on a calculator
Knew arithmetic so well
Working overtime
Completed what was assigned
We had to multiply ourselves
A bouncing little baby
A shiny copper penny
And he spent himself
Would not listen to us
But when he lost his appetite
He lost his weight in friends
Baby became a fat nickel so fast
Then came puberty
Exponentially
Soon our boy became a million
People loved him so
And helped him to grow
Everyone knew the thing that was best
Of course, he must invest
A penny won't do
But he made us proud
He made us rich
But how were we to know
He's counterfeit
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
I might have kids around the world
But I wouldn't fucking know
'Cause I've got so many bitches
That I'm in a vertigo
And I can not use a rubber
'Cause I'm so fucking skint
That when I go to a store
I can't buy a lousy mint
I own a Lamborghini
It's just a small model
My friend want it 'cause I'm in debt
So we had to royal rumble
He has this hot girl
They're like the beauty and the beast
'Cause I broke his fucking teeth
And can't afford a dentist
Yes, we can
No we can't 'cause I don't know no one that owns money
I would have fucking cry
But the situation is kind of funny
Borgore, what would you do if you'd be like, filthy rich
I'll buy the Olsen Twins and a private beach
I'm selling fucking tunes
Punishing different women
What can I say, bitches love my seamen
I'm always on the grind
But Its not for fucking skengz
I'm a motherfucking player with no money in the bank
(Money in the bank..)
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, get away.
Get a good job with good pay and youre okay.
Money, its a gas.
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think Ill buy me a football team.
Money, get back.
Im all right jack keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, its a hit.
Dont give me that do goody good bullshit.
Im in the high-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a lear jet.
Money, its a crime.
Share it fairly but dont take a slice of my pie.

Green is where it's at
Green will never let you down
You can bet your life on that
Win the bet and buy a crown
'Cause when pushin' comes to shove
Money conquers faith and love
You can buy 'em up for nothing down
Money makes the world go round and round
Round and around
Money makes the world go round and round
Round and around
Sell your soul at cost
Buy the bar another round
Make yourself the boss
Pay your worker's shit and tax the ground
'Cause when money is your friend
Then the party never ends
Hire a crew and you can paint the town
Money makes the world go round and round
Round and around
Money makes the world go round and round
Round and around

Money makes the world go round and round
Round and around
Money makes the world go round and round

Chorus (3x):
I like the way you do it, when you do it
When you doin, what you doin
Check this out right here, son
We about to move to make you feel some
A lot of positive vibrations to build from
'Cause all I wanna do is lose some and win some
Have a little of prosperity and then some
Livin my life handsome, has always been a dream but
Now it's time to really achieve by all means (Bust it)
I keep my shit, plus thirty in between
When an arm reach out to grab the supreme
'Cause I won't stop, and AP won't stop
And Tab won't stop until we reach the top
That means we won't quit, so we stay thick so you can enjoy it
I know you like the way it's goin down, honey, honey
I know you like the milky-mellow sound, honey, honey
Doin this ain't all about money, money
I know you like the way I sound, right, right
Chorus (4x)
As I enter the room I absorb the mood
Positive vibe supplied by a positive crew
And negativity exist and you must acknowledge
You can be intelligent and never go to college
'Cause the way we live in society
It ain't really the way that it's supposed to be
And don't get close to me if you're contaminated
Take a picture of your soul and get it laminated
Put them in your wallet next to your money
Money represents your whole and soul represents your honey
Ain't got honey then you ain't got bees
And if you ain't got no money I'ma still MC
Then empty L-O-V-E all over the track
Once you R-E-D then you never go back
'Til the end of studio with the Peas as Black
With Adam, Taboo, and alligator APL De AP
Chorus (4x)
I wanna travel the world and stop on every city
Rejuvenate your burnt out sea put down your Philly for a sec
Close your eyes and don't fret
Listen to the audible sounds and just let
Your soul feel the free feelin
Reprovide you with the ride, free fallin
To make your heart beat, skip, hipnotize you and
APL take you on a trip where your mind's at ease
Forget ballin 'cause I won't quit, and Will won't quit
And Tab won't quit so you can enjoy it
That means we won't stop
And I won't stop until we reach the rop
I'd rather be ready for the future
Do it for yourself 'cause no one else will suit ya
I juxtapose for mine to maintain
And segregate myself from evil and pain
Chorus (8x)
[Chorus:]
I like dollars
I like pesos
I like pounds
I like euro
I like corona
I like yen
I like rupee
Girl my friend
I like my money [repeats]
Money make the world go round round
And the dollars make the pennies come down down down
If I see her and I want her if a spend a couple of coronas
She will be right back to my condo right now now now
You see me in the club
You know how I get down
I throw the money up
I make the... count
Just ain't nobody to rock the party
Like I party like James McGuire
[Chorus]
I like my money like they grow on trees
From the... to overseas
Bring it back
Tell them where will you deposit these
All different currencies
Sacked up in my Billy Jeans
I don't know what you've been told
But I can tell you this one thing
Yeah I get money!
I ain't been broke in a long motherfuckin time nigga
Yeah, my baby momma God damnit got a $150, 000 house
My mistress and my motherfuckin wife God damnit got $150, 000 house
And most of you motherfuckin niggaz out here
Shoppin for these motherfuckin deals
You niggaz need to cut that shit that out
You niggaz God damnit don't even 'sposed to be rappin God damnit
Your motherfuckin time expired

Who go from rags to riches and spend their riches on rags,
Similar bags with designer name tags.
Be glad you got yourself cause they mad.
They fake, plus they making mad mistakes!
(They tell you your wise,)
You wait and see you can't replace that space.
And I bet money can't keep that smile on your face!
Everybody's nice to you now. (Money!)
Dollars and sense, (You mad at the money that you spent. uh!)
It's fun to do but is it allowed? (sing)
Poor girl in a house of correction.
You're sexy as hell but it won't pay the bills forever.
Bright lights and no information.
Your feet hit the ground, when you lost what you found.
[x8:]
Money! Money, money, money, money, money, money
Money is the root of all evil!
Stay on top!
Make sure you make it,
Make sure that it don't make you!
That goes back old school as far as you can go back.
That's right, you make the money,
Make sure the money don't make you.
Money is over my head,over my breath,over myself,over my
time,over my heart,over my side,over my pain
Money is over this friend,over this pet,over this
tear,over this house,over this love,over this race,over
this god
Slaves
We Are Slaves
To the Laws of Society
Slaves of no particular race
A short of disgrace
We are
Slaves
We Are Slaves
Money is over my head,my race,my pain,my time
Money is over my love,my self,my heart,my death
Slaves
We Are Slaves
To the Laws of Society
Slaves of no particular race
A short of disgrace
We are
Slaves
We Are Slaves To The Gods In Our Minds
This Life seems so Overrated
She don't care 'bout education
Money is her motivation
He don't live for love and passion
When he can buy his satisfaction
{Refrain: x2}
Money, Money
Get rich or die tryin'
Money, Money
Get rich or die tryin'
Get diamonds and celebrity
Be famous or die tryin'
The power, the luxury
Be a star or die tryin'
{au Refrain}
A driver, a limousine
Be famous or die tryin'
A bodyguard, some jewelry
Be a star or die tryin'
She don't care 'bout education
Money is her motivation
He don't live for love and passion
When he can buy his satisfaction
{au Refrain, x3}
The "M" is for money
The "O" is for over
You know the "N" is for yall niggas
The "E" is especially especially
Cuz "Y" is for yo ass you know that's how it is
Nightmares wakin up like damn what a dream
Just to think about the shit people do for the color green
Tryin to live in a steady pace
Who'da ever thought a presidents face could start a war in every race
Diplomat status that's were the lifes at
I seen plenty die over any when and why cuz its like that
Tryin to make it easy by rappin for dough
But that's where niggas change like hundreds after they broke
Politican wit baby chan we sat and we spoke
about how we feel guilty givin crack to the folks
First of the month don't start raw potin
Ladies boltin the mail man comin hold the door open
A dollar aint a dream
Lottery tax free or the number mans at your crib cuz you hit last week
They say I change over cream then let it be true
Its money over niggas especially you
[chorus x2]
lock the game down is what im ready to do
its money over niggas especially you
aint no such thing as sharin you gotta get your own
I went from a prince to a king now kiss the throne
Six zeroes at the end is what im waitin to see
So until the day I croke I be playin for keeps
Now that dollars is played out we runnin the plastic
Whats in the stash, little niggas gats under the mattress
From visa to american express to mastercard
To millionaires with families who never had a job
While poor people spend days and nights prayin for minimum wage
Which is considered they whole life savings
High rollers eat expensive lunch meat
At the Roy Jones fight couple g's front seat
Social security check relax and stat
Niggas personality change when they tax come back
Its what you wish for when you blow them candles out
Christmas time moms wake you up shes handin out
Abe Lincolns, Ben Franklins, its money over niggas especially you so what you
thinkin
[chorus x2]
A yo the things we do just to touch that paper
I heard theres a safe next door so lets rush the neighbors
With the guns out who want they cabbage peeled
A half a mil stashed in bills is glad to feel
Who ever think that same old timer asking for shit
Would a have a couple of grands stashed in the back of a crib
Wellfare medicaid every hood excepted
Law suits, settlements just for good investments
Multi-millions spent on military combat
Compared to a player with an NBA contract
Neck rock chokers on the wives of stock brokers
Luxury car drivin but got chauffers
Havin getting drugs with this losin love for this
Even pull a gat out on your own blood for this
And I sat down and politic with plenty of crews
But its money over niggas especially you
[chorus x2]
[talking] see son ya y'all niggas don't know (nah son)
sometimes its, its money over niggas and bitches son
know what im sayin
I gotta get my money to son
Y'all niggas aint feedin me (they damn sure aint)
Know what im sayin
Either y'all niggas is with me or against me son
Ima get it one way
Money over niggas and bitches all the time son
Focus (the root of all evil)
Verse 1.)

Money makes the world go round or so that's what they say
But no one pays the sun to turn the night back into day
And all the plants and animals don't know the value of a dollar
And so this man made symbol adds to a word that's so unnatural
People no longer worship gods they now worship federal notes
Putting all their faith and trust in corporation cut-throats
They work like slaves every day so their bosses can get rich
Then they turn around and spend the little that they make on useless shit
[Chorus:]
Money is the root of all evil
Money is the shackle of the new slave owner
Money is the root of all evil
Don't let it get you, you've got to break free
Each bill is imprinted with four words I can't believe
"In God We Trust" is bullshit, and freedom will never ring
The dollar bill is nothing, but it tends to rule our lives
Each bill is just a link in the shackles of our pride
Money makes the world go round or so that's what they say
But no one pays the sun to turn the night back into day
And all the plants and animals don't know the value of a dollar
Money matters when you're broke, when you're broke
and money fixes for awhile.
If you got money if your wallet you got permission
to enjoy yourself for awhile.
But money burns, Money turns the very best into the worst criminal child
money matters, money kills, money makes the world go round
money, money ain't the villain
money its greed thats the killer
money, money ain't the villain
money, its greed thats the killer
dollar bills buying pills giving thrills in the evening sunset light
middle seat in the back in between a couple hooligans sunset light
light em up let em down i'm going downtown to find some play tonight
dollar bills give em thrills in the back of their best friends ride
money, money aint the villain
money its greed thats the killer
money, money aint the villain
money, its greed thats the killer
penny quarter nickel and dime
how you make change without money
penny quarter nickel and dime
how you make change tell me how you make change without
money money ain't the villain
money its greed thats a killer
money matters when you're broke when you're broke
and money fixes for awhile
money money ain't the villain
money its greed thats a killer
penny quarter nickel and dime
how you make change without money
money money ain't the villain yall
money its greed thats a killer
money matters
money money ain't the villain
money its greed thats a killer
