Greed Lyrics

Not about the money, money, put the money in the bank
The money breeds greed, and greed is really bad
Money, money, oh, I never really had
And I got by just fine not workin' for the man

You think you got a dollar but you only got a dime
A-hustle up your lovin' to see the sun shine

The simple things, and the simple things
And people only give a shit when you

Hide yourself
Try to mould to perfection, you don't feel like feedin' the mouth
Bite the hand that feeds you wealth
And that ain't good for my mental health, no, no

They only give a shit when you make it big
Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone
Turn their back when you make a hit
But if you love it, then you'll hold it down

They only give a shit when you make it big
Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone
Turn their back when you make a hit
But if you love it, gotta hold it down
Gotta hold it down Make a million dollars, but it ain't that much
When it passes through the hands, and they take their cuts
So put your faces on the poster, got the people inside
When the debt rolls around, they go run and hide

East side to the seaside, south side to the middle and, of course, I died
Head north to the border to get the time over
And when the sun goes down, I surrender to the night
(I surrender to the night)
I will kiss away my pride (I will kiss away my pride)
And I know it will find me one day
All in good time

They only give a shit when you make it big
Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone
Turn their back when you make a hit
But if you love it, then you'll hold it down
They only give a shit when you make it big
Frame my memory when I'm dead and gone
Turn their back when you make a hit
But if you love it, then you'll hold it down
You gotta hold it down
