GANGgajang - American Money lyrics
"Is this what my life amounts to?" Says the man with the carnation in his lapel, "I didn't know it worked this way I thought every dog had his day" And he'd believed in the dream He'd waited on every corner But now forsaken he explains It wasn't the temptation of a woman It was American money I tell you it made him what he is today It was American money He imagined stuffing pictures of Washington In the pocket of his raincoat "So where has my family gone to?" Says the man From the fortieth floor of his hotel Well everybody has to pay But maybe it's in different ways 'Cause he'd believed in the dream Why he'd met it on every corner But he never could explain What could made a man lose his sense of decency It was American money I tell you it made him what he is today It was American money So don't underestimate the power of The dollar in your pocket American money And there's pictures of Washington Falling from his pockets Now they got guns in outer space And nobody's going to win that race 'Cause when there's nowhere left to hide You won't be taking sides Though you believed in the dream And it was waiting on every corner But now it's coming down around you Like bankers jumping from the windows of Wall Street American money I tell you it made us what we are today It was American money So don't underestimate the power Of the dollar in your pocket American money I tell you, made us what we are today It was American money We'd imagined stuffing pictures of Washington In the pockets of our raincoats |
