"Ninety Nine (Go For Broke)" lyrics

"Ninety Nine (Go For Broke)"

Print up fresh legal tender
Easy money for zero
Convictions to surrender
Collect a token, pass go
Pictures of people on plastic
You trade your glory for gold
Bankers, execs, politician's excess
Is this shit getting old?

Why don't we go for broke
No ceiling to the greed
Only choice for the ninety nine
Is to cut and bleed

Why don't we go for broke
No ceiling to the greed
Only choice for the ninety nine
Is to cut and bleed

You picked the wrong profession
Talent ain't needed here son
We ain't inclined towards reason
It's a game with a zero sum
Waxworks in glass towers
Inject confected currency
It's fools gold
A perverted alchemy

Why don't we go for broke
No ceiling to the greed
Only choice for the ninety nine
Is to cut and bleed

Why don't we go for broke
No ceiling to the greed
Only choice for the ninety nine
Is to cut and bleed

Why don't we go for broke
No ceiling to the greed
Only choice for the ninety nine
Is to cut and bleed
