Money Machine
(专辑: In The Pocket - 1976)
When I
was just a
child, my life was, oh, so simple. And the
ways of the
great world seemed strange and funny. Then when I
was a
young man, I
learned of that machine that turns out all those bails of precious money. Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, Ooo, that money machine. Now you can measure you manhood by it. You can get your children to try it. You can bring your enemies to their knees with the
possible exception of the
North Vietnamese. It takes a
strong hit from the
money machine, sitting on top, on top of the
world. Strong hit from the
money machine, sitting on top, on top of the
world. Oh, General Motors and IBM. AFL-CIO and all the
king's men. When I
began the
game, see me singing about the
fire and rain. Let me just say it again, I've seen fives and I've seen tens. It was a
strong hit from the
money machine, sitting on top, on top of the
world. Strong hit from the
money machine, sitting on top, on top of the
world. Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, ha ha ha. Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money. Give me that dough, give me that dough, give me that dough, give me that dough. Been living in the
lap of luxury too long. Please, Mr. DJ, won't you play my song. Maybe my baby will listen on the
radio. Come back home to me, help me spend my dough. I
need a
strong hit from the
money machine. Sitting on top, on top of the
goddamn world. Strong hit, babe, from the
money machine, woo, sitting on top, on top of the
world. Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money. Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money. From that money machine.
