Story Behind the Song
I just got pained looking at money...especially when it's used to screw people's lives up.
The tune happened pretty quick and so did the recording.
Lyrics
MONEY
Trying to fill my pockets before the sun goes down,
Racing,I'm racing time
The sun's sinkin' fast, gotta go through the night,
Oh no! It's overtime
When I awake at daybreak,my sustenance is gone,
Money flies with time.
It can't buy you love,it can get you power
Strange kinda thing,it's the need of the hour.
When you're down,down and out,
There's nothing else like it to get you out.
Money,ooh yeah,Money,can take you there
But it can't buy someone when you need a friend around
Or a shoulder to cry on when you're feelin' way down
Money can't get you everything.
Thinking clean,could use it so well
Thinking dirty could buy your ticket to hell
Keep it straight,no cheating poor
They're human too it's their need of the hour
Money,ooh yeah,sure money,can take you there
Just don't be filled with obsession,don't rant and rave for more
Stretch your wits to the limit,you'll dig your own grave for sure
Well money sure can kill you,it drives you crazy and sure can thrill you
Money can't get you everything.
