A penny for your thoughts A dollar for your soul Few more shining pieces And now we're on a roll. The world which runs on paper and coin, Be it for food, or house Pleasure of **** We sell our bodies, And not our souls Though some sales will Be worth more than gold It's the world we choose. The world we thrive in. The world we'll lose If we keep on lying. Shiny bobbles and trinkets Do not measure what lies within To ignore this fact Indeed would be sin
