the money song.
He hates the fact that you need money to live
You need money to make a living
You need money to pay the bills
And that the world revolves around money
Why can't he just make a life out of music and doing what he loves
Why does that one stupid thing hold him back from seeking his potential
He's terribly unhappy with his job (He hates it)
He just wants to walk in and say (I quit)
He don't wanna work your spreadsheets anymore
Because he's tired of answering your calls
And being confined to your four walls
And punching time clocks over and over again
But still he keeps on
Keeps on fighting
And they can't see him coming
They think all he has is a silly song to sing
But still he keeps on keeps on fighting
No matter where he's going
It ain't easy to share all his vulnerabilities
Plain old Jane works the counter all day
Serving coffee, tea, and pies
With a baby on the way
She contemplates her life
But she don't get a dime
Workin' overtime
The world she'll never know
Hoping one day she'll find a place to make home
But still she keeps on keeps on livin'
And they can't understand
That she has hopes and she has dreams
But still she keeps on keeps on livin'
And one day
That dream will finally become her reality
I don't wanna be
Living this misery
I've been stuck in for all of this time
I'll stand on my own
So tall cause I've outgrown
Those boundaries you've locked me in
Oh Oh Oh
But still we keep on keep on fighting and they can't
Understand that we have hopes and we have dreams
But still we keep on keep on livin' and one day
That dream will finally become reality
You need money to make a living
You need money to pay the bills
And that the world revolves around money
Why can't he just make a life out of music and doing what he loves
Why does that one stupid thing hold him back from seeking his potential
He's terribly unhappy with his job (He hates it)
He just wants to walk in and say (I quit)
He don't wanna work your spreadsheets anymore
Because he's tired of answering your calls
And being confined to your four walls
And punching time clocks over and over again
But still he keeps on
Keeps on fighting
And they can't see him coming
They think all he has is a silly song to sing
But still he keeps on keeps on fighting
No matter where he's going
It ain't easy to share all his vulnerabilities
Plain old Jane works the counter all day
Serving coffee, tea, and pies
With a baby on the way
She contemplates her life
But she don't get a dime
Workin' overtime
The world she'll never know
Hoping one day she'll find a place to make home
But still she keeps on keeps on livin'
And they can't understand
That she has hopes and she has dreams
But still she keeps on keeps on livin'
And one day
That dream will finally become her reality
I don't wanna be
Living this misery
I've been stuck in for all of this time
I'll stand on my own
So tall cause I've outgrown
Those boundaries you've locked me in
Oh Oh Oh
But still we keep on keep on fighting and they can't
Understand that we have hopes and we have dreams
But still we keep on keep on livin' and one day
That dream will finally become reality
