Money talks these days and everybody listens
We're whipping out our wallets trying to but what we're missingMoney screams out "I need a slave"
I'm just trying to find some worker to dig my graveEverybody's listening, everybody's listening, all those eyes are glistening
I need more, a little more, in a little whileI say those?
Machines?I'm just trying to find somebody to pay my bail
Money screams is says "My soul's for sale"Everybody's listening, everybody's listening, all those eyes are glisteningI need a maid to pick up my mess, help me in the morning, help me get dressed
I'll pay you when I get paid, I'll pay you when I get paidMoney talks these days, money talks these days
What you gonna do when the criminal says "Your money or your life"?
(Not used?)
I need more, I'm bored, shine my shoes, wax my floorMew father of our powerful land of the free
I ain't doing nothing, I'll just hire someone to do it for meNo matter how small George gets he'll still talk louder than you
Dollars shrieking "Ha, ha, ha jokes's on you"End everybody's listening, all those eyes are glisteningRich bored, blind, and lone, better buy me a wife
I'm saving up everything to buy me a knife
