Money Is Not Our God - Killing Joke

Nine tenths of the law that is sick

Is possession

Life expressed in matter is a blasphemy

Success defined by acquisition stinks!

So busy trying to make a living I forget about living

Yes, I do

So busy trying to make a living I forget about life

Come on, let’s live!

The best things I found in life were my birthright

Green fields mean more to me than a brand new car

Will you swap your hi-fi for a clear blue sky?

Will you cash in all your shares for God’s clean air?

Is your answer yes or no to these painful truths?

Hmm?

Is your answer yes or no to these painful truths?

Do you grovel to your master?

Do you beg like a dog?

First things first, repeat to yourself:

Argh, money!

Money is not our god!

Push it in, do it like this

Mine!

The best things in life are free

Mine!

I own the beach and the blazing sunset

Mine!

I own the waves and the fresh air

Mine!

I drink the milk of the stars in this beautiful moment

Say to yourself:

All these things are mine!

Repeat after me!

Money’s not our God!

Do you grovel to your master?

Do you beg like a dog?

First things first, repeat to yourself:

Ahh, money!
