Moneyland

Now it's a pity to see
When the land of the free
Turns out to be
Nothing but a free for all

If you got big dough
You're free than most
'Cause your freedom goes up
With the size of your bankroll

You can buy a judge, or a bribe or a thug
Or a bomb or a shredding machine
You can buy your way through into and onto
Any ticket or tv screen

It's a money disease
It's a thing called greed
And it feeds on those
Who need it the most
In moneyland
Oh it ain't so funny
If you ain't got the money
In moneyland

Now corporate crime
You just do a little time
Pay a little fine
And then you're in the clear

Murder and robbbery
Calls for snobbery (?)
Doesn't mean a thing
It just falls on deaf ears

Money is thing we all sweat for
It's what some dreams are made of
But then there's those who want it all
And enough is never enough

It's a money disease
It's a thing called greed
And it feeds on those
Who need it the most
In moneyland
Oh it ain't so funny
If you ain't got the money
In moneyland

Aooh money, money, money, money
Oooo more, more, more, more
Aooh money, money, money, money
Oh it ain't so funny
If you ain't got the money
In moneyland

Now a piece of the action
Is the main attraction
Get a big house, a fast car
Honey you've got class

What'll it get me
How much? What's my?
Are the only questions
Anyone seems to ask

Now who got beat
Got fought, got bled
And who got burned today
Who got fixed, got fooled, got framed
And who got in the way

It's a money disease
It's a thing called greed
And it feeds on those
Who need it most
In moneyland
Oh it ain't so funny
If you ain't got the money
In moneyland

Aooh money, money, money, money
Oooo more, more, more, more
Aooh money, money, money, money
Oh it ain't so funny
If you ain't got the money
In moneyland
Oh it ain't so funny
If you ain't got the money
In moneyland
