Moneyland

Lyrics

Now it's a pity to see, when the land of the free
 Turns out to be nothin' but a free for all
 If you got big dough, you're freer 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 the money most in Moneyland
 Oh, it ain't so funny if you ain't got the money in Moneyland
 ♪
 Now a corporate crime, you just do a little time
 Pay a little fine, and then you're in the clear
 Murder and robbery caused by snobbery
 Doesn't mean a thing, it just falls on deaf ears
 Money is the 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 the money most in Moneyland
 Oh, it ain't so funny if you ain't got the money in Moneyland
 Ah-ooh, money, money, money, money
 Ooh, more, more, more, more
 Ooh, 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, fast car, honey, you've got class
 What'll it get me, how much, what's mine?
 Are the only questions anybody 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 the money most in Moneyland
 Oh, it ain't so funny if you ain't got the money in Moneyland
 Ah-ooh, money, money, money, money
 Ooh, more, more, more, more
 Ah-ooh, 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
