about

This song took several years to make. First it was just a title (in 2001). Finally started getting made in 2006. Computer problems got in the way. At long last, it managed to get released in 2009.

The music was inspired by Depeche Mode's "Barrel of a Gun".

lyrics

-Verse 1-
You say, "Get all you want, not what you've got", but that is wrong.
Greed has a hold of you.
(Oh yeah... Oh yeah)
You're such a money-grabber, you must quit your jibber jabber.
So, what are you gonna do?
(Yeah... Yeah)

-Instrumental Break-

-Verse 2-
You're taking from the poor to get some more to pay the whore.
Feeding your lust's disease.
(Oh yeah... Oh yeah)
In your self-satisfaction, the main attraction is a waste of action.
The evil, it must be ceased.
(Yeah... Yeah)

-Bridge 1-
You're after that sweet old honey.
The honey that we call money.
The powerful asking for a slice
The greedy, sinful price.

-Chorus-
It goes around and 'round and 'round,
See the money go 'round and 'round and 'round,
Like a merry-go-round, it's round and 'round,
But it's a money-go-round.

-Verse 3-
There's not enough for all, so you call for the wall
To be torn to the ground.
(Oh yeah... Oh yeah)
I'm calling for a truce, but what's the use with this abuse?
Your honesty can't be found.
(Yeah... Yeah)

-Bridge 2-
I won't ride it, not for you.
You haven't got a clue.
I'll deny the wheel of evil.
I'm speaking for the people.

-Chorus x2-
