You impress the rich an' shameless With millions in the bank But silver, gold to have an' hold Don't put love in their tank Shoes ya wear to yer underwear Won't put out the heat For widows, orphans, mentally needy Ya left out in the street The stranded empty-handed You gilded-caged ignore Unless they pay homage An' at your feet adore Much is given, will be required But to you more ain't enough One above sees every deal An' He will call yer bluff Build bigger barns or towers Executive privilege thick Ain't real love or power Just a little business trick You talk like they're important But only to your brand The heart of the heartless Is buried in the sand There's One name under heaven Which ought to cause concern Yes One Who's up in heaven Who ought to cause concern The sickest truth some among us Never seem to learn That mountain of money It's all gonna burn It was just, only just All just money to burn
