It's no good praying to the powers that be'cause they won't shake the roots of the money treeNo good praying to the pristine altersWaiting for the blessing with holy waterThey like the same old wealth in the same old handsMeans the same old people stay old people stay in commandWatch your money-go-round; watch your money-go-roundThey got it wrapped up tight, they got it safe and soundWatch your money-go-round; watch your money-go-roundAs you fall from grace and hit the groundToo much money in too few placesOnly puts a smile on particular facesSaid too much power in not enough handsMakes me think get rich quick; take all I canThey're too busy spending on the means of destructionTo ever spend a penny on some real constructionWatch the money-go-round; watch the money-go-roundThey amuse themselves as they fool aroundWatch your money-go-round; watch your money-go-roundDo like they say, make them vulnerableNo good looking to the empire corners,civilization built on slaughterCarrying hopes and carrying mapsThe spineless ones fall in their lapsThe brave and the bold are the ones to be fooledWith a diet of lies by the Kipling schoolWatch your money-go-round, watch your money-go-roundBut I just can't help being cynicalWatch your money-go-round, watch your money-go-roundDo like I say, make me wonderfulTheir morals are clean and their clearThey bend your arm and they bend your earSaid they bend your mind as you talk in circlesBend over forwards, this won't hurt youTill there's blood in your lap, blood on your handsWatch the money-go-round, watch the money-go-roundCome spend a penny, go out with a poundWatch the money-go-round, watch the money-go-roundAs you fall from grace and hit the ground(on the money-go-round, you wanna get on but it won't slow down)The need your votes and you know where to send 'emBe we don't get the choice of a public referendumOn all the real issues that affect our livesLike the usa base to which we play midwifeTake a cruise and forget this sceneSaid come back later when the slates wiped cleanWatch your money-go-round, watch your money-go-roundBorn of woman, killed by manWatch the money-go-round, watch your money-go-roundDo like they pray, make it wonderfulThe good and righteous sing their hymnsThe crimpoline dresses who have no sinsChristians by day, killers in warThe hypocrites who know what they're fighting forKilling for peace, freedom and truthBut they're too old to go so they send the youthWatch the money-go-round, watch the money-go-roundI don't think he was an astronautWatch the money-go-round, watch the money-go-roundI must insist, he was a socialist!Watch your money-go-round, watch your money-go-roundThey got it wrapped up tight, they got it safe and soundWatch your money-go-round, watch your money-go-roundAs you fall from grace and hit the ground
