"Monopoly Money" lyrics
"Monopoly Money"
When I was a kid, we didn't murder CEOs
They just gave us each a penny and we did what we were told
They don't care how many people they watch work themselves to death
The only thing they're scared of is a bullet in the chest
Monopoly money, they spend it like it's nothing
A mansion, an airplane, a couple politicians
Monopoly money, I kinda think it's funny
You buy your way to heaven
But you die like the rest of us
When I was a kid, they told me I could buy a home
I could get myself a family, a career, and then grow old
They don't care how many people they step on to get ahead
The only thing they're scared of is a bullet in the head
Monopoly money, they spend it like it's nothing
A mansion, an airplane, a couple politicians
Monopoly money, I kinda think it's funny
You buy your way to heaven
But you die like the rest of us
When I was a kid
They taught me how to shoot a gun
Told me I would be a soldier
If they ever needed one
They don't care how many people they send home inside a box
The only thing thing they're scared of is the thought of being shot
Monopoly money, they spend it like it's nothing
A sports team, a new car, a couple politicians
Monopoly money, I kinda think it's funny
You buy your way to heaven
But you die like the rest of us
It's hard
To die with such a guilty heart
And leave this world much better off
When you live like a parasite
Nobody misses you when you die
Monopoly money
They spend it like it's nothing
You die like the rest of us

A different life in a brand new place

Brick + Mortar - "Train" I wanna take the train with you
I wanna run away with you
Come on run away, run away with me

Jack Stauber - "Fighter" When I try-y-y (there you are)
To look sly
When you push all my curtains to the side
To the side
Call me fighter

Call me lover

You'll get...

Around you they were so confused a faulty man could have so much fun
They read your smiles, nothing but teeth, looked at you with pity...
