Oh Oh Oh Yeah Money money Some steal it, some kill for it Some do iniquity for it It makes friends, it break friends We troubled down is you I love Money money money root of all evil (Love, Love, Love, Love…) Money, money’s been such a damn challenge And I’ve spent years scared to check my bank balance: I’ve had flatshares smaller than atoms, Seen debt of depths most oceans can’t fathom Cannot buy love, can buy sanity Can goodbye love when the salary dries up Wised up: money’s like gravity Weighs on us near physically, that’s the tragedy: Money is cocksure, offshore, Even when a friend, its interests are not yours; Boom bust brings permanent trouble, The currencies swing like surburban couples: Whether you’re jobless or got rich, Money’s in control, alone in the cockpit Though we need it to breathe, it seems toxic, Can’t flee its reach with plane, train or CrossFit Money money money root of all evil…. If hope is an oak tree, cash flow’s the axe: The ladder was in reach, the world snatched it back - Jobs flee, and student fees treble The rents rise and never descend, like sea levels: Inequality as a policy Ends horribly, historically Tax, spend, borrow, please: Immigrants didn’t crash the economy But some blamed us, and snatched all the property As they ever do, Dash with the revenue Take most of cake Make us scrap for the residue: Some sniffed when we criticised trickle-down - Ask their opinion: you can hear crickets now; Not bitter now - We think big picture now - Even getting busy flipping this ship around: Money is the root that’s been too long watered Let’s take its fruits back, and move things forward
