Money-Go-Round (Part 1) (Original Single Edit) - The Style Council
It's no good praying to the powers that be
'Cause they won't shake the
Roots of the money tree
No good praying to the pristine alters
Waiting for the blessing with Holy water
They like the same old
Wealth in the same old hands
Means the same old people stay
In command
Watch your money-go-round;
Watch your money-go-round
They got it wrapped up tight
They got it safe and sound
Watch your money-go-round;
Watch your money-go-round
As you fall from grace and hit the ground
Too much money in too few places
Only puts a smile on particular faces
Said too much power in not enough hands
Makes me think "get rich quick; take all I can"
They're too busy spending
On the means of destruction
To ever spend a penny on
Some real construction
Watch the money-go-round;
Watch the money-go-round
They amuse themselves as they fool around
Watch your money-go-round;
Watch your money-go-round
Do like they say make them vulnerable
No good looking to the Empire corners
"Civilization" built on slaughter
Carrying hopes and carrying maps
The spinless ones fall in their laps
The brave and the bold
Are the ones to be fooled
With a diet of lies by the Kipling school
Watch your money-go-round;
Watch your money-go-round
But I just can't help being cynical
Watch your money-go-round;
Watch your money-go-round
Do like I say make me wonderful
Their morals are clean and their clear
They bend your arm and they bend your ear
Said they bend your mind as you talk in circles
Bend over forwards this won't hurt you
Till there's blood in your lap;
Blood on your hands
That's must the dadly toltaly can
Watch the money-go-round;
Watch the money-go-round
Come spend a penny go out with a pound
Watch the money-go-round;
Watch the money-go-round
As you fall from grace and hit the ground
Yeah oh
