Mind what you do and say Or some things will come and stay You cling to paper, as if it makes you But if it wasn't for flesh what could money do I've seen the hate it causes So it's just new to you Either it corrupts or destroys Very green with a wicked smile Like a landlord when the rents due I see the meaning but the message is foul Living is a pleasure to do And instead for asking who We would rather pretend to be dumbfounded like an owl Dollar after dollar Like a dog with a collar The source we can't live with but yet we can't live without Or can't we Not realizing that clinging to material Does not make one a god but a flea So I make amends to my self To never get tied to the notion of common wealth

Mind what you do and say Or some things will come and stay You cling to paper, as if it makes you But if it wasn't for flesh what could money do I've seen the hate it causes So it's just new to you Either it corrupts or destroys Very green with a wicked smile Like a landlord when the rents due I see the meaning but the message is foul Living is a pleasure to do And instead for asking who We would rather pretend to be dumbfounded like an owl Dollar after dollar Like a dog with a collar The source we can't live with but yet we can't live without Or can't we Not realizing that clinging to material Does not make one a god but a flea So I make amends to my self To never get tied to the notion of common wealth
