Greed

It's not about the money

Money put the money in the bank

Money breeds greed and greed is really bad

Money, money oh I never really had

And I got by just fine not workin' for the man

Thinkin' you got a dollar but you only got a dime

Hustle up your lovin' to see the sunshine

The simple things, and the simple things

And people only givin' a shit when you hide yourself

Try to mould to perfection

When you don't feel like feeding the mouth

Bite the hand that feeds your wealth

And that ain't good for my mental health, oh no

They only give a shit when you make it big

Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone

Turn their back when you make a hit

But if you love me then you'll hold it down

They only give a shit when you make it big

Frame my memory when I’m dead and gone

Turn their back when you make a hit

But if you love me then you’ll hold it down

You gotta hold it down

Make a million dollars but it ain't that much

When it passes through the hands and they take their cuts

So put your face on the poster, got the people inside

When the debt rolls around they go run and hide

Eastside to the seaside

Southside to the middle and of course I died

Head north to the border to get the time over

And when the Sun comes down

I surrender to the night (I surrender to the night)

And I will kiss away my pride (I will kiss away my pride)

And I know it will find me one day

All in good time

They only give a shit when you make it big

Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone

Turn their back when you make a hit

But if you love me then you'll hold it down

They only give a shit when you make it big

Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone

Turn their back when you make a hit

But if you love me then you'll hold it down

You gotta hold it down
