Shawn Phillips - Moneydance lyrics
Your rating:
Kicking and clawing in this world of money You're already in the middle of world war three Backstabbing charlatans standing on a hallowed ground Trying to tell you that you are free When the banker tells you that it's gonna be alright You know that he is talking 'bout his own security With six billion people all trying to be the number one I think that you can see where that will easily lead But if you gonna fly with the wings of an eagle Then you have to be an eagle at heart Soaring through the circus of your own emotions And striking out into the dark 'Cause it's a money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money isn't everything It'll never buy you peace of mind It'll never buy you courage or pride It'll never buy you the things that you want the most The things you love that you feel inside And you can be sure you will find out who your friends are When you are broke they will not run and hide They will always be there when you need them When the world gets tough and the times get tried But if you gonna fly with the wings of an eagle Then you have to be an eagle at heart Soaring through the circus of your own emotions And striking out into the dark 'Cause it's a money dance, funny dance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Yet the sun keeps shinin' in the brilliant skies Even though they may be tinged with grey There ain't no reason to keep on freakin' out There ain't no reason throwin' life away So many people in a world of trouble How can this be in a world so bright? With life all around you teeming in the distance As far away as the farthest night 'Cause it's a money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Oh, money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Oh, money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Oh, money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance, Money dance, funny dance, Spinnin' on a wheel of chance. Money dance, money dance, Money dance, money dance, Money dance, money dance, Money dance, money dance, Money dance
