Money
If you back people into a corner
They always show their teeth
Usually happens when we talk about money
Usually happens when we talk about money
And you'll end up seeing a side
You didn't want to see
What we talk about when we talk about money
What we talk about when we talk about money
Cos we all doggedly defend
Our own captor to the nth as if it's our friend
Yes we all cherish and covet
Some old self-made narrative denies others of the same
So when you say the sky is the limit
Well actually now it is
Cos those before us all took a portion
Slashed and burned for future generations
We've chosen to forget
No one chooses to live
Dreaming from the first wrung of the ladder
Easier with one foot on the ladder
Cos no one wants the fun to end
First thing we learn to say is again, again
And again
If freedom's predicated on other people having none
Then it's not free
So you can doggedly invest
In some intangible concept
With diminishing returns
Don't you see cause and effect
Between everything
We're removed
But we're still here
Alone
Together
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The sixth extinction is a symptom of greed
They always show their teeth
Usually happens when we talk about money
Usually happens when we talk about money
And you'll end up seeing a side
You didn't want to see
What we talk about when we talk about money
What we talk about when we talk about money
Cos we all doggedly defend
Our own captor to the nth as if it's our friend
Yes we all cherish and covet
Some old self-made narrative denies others of the same
So when you say the sky is the limit
Well actually now it is
Cos those before us all took a portion
Slashed and burned for future generations
We've chosen to forget
No one chooses to live
Dreaming from the first wrung of the ladder
Easier with one foot on the ladder
Cos no one wants the fun to end
First thing we learn to say is again, again
And again
If freedom's predicated on other people having none
Then it's not free
So you can doggedly invest
In some intangible concept
With diminishing returns
Don't you see cause and effect
Between everything
We're removed
But we're still here
Alone
Together
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The six other sins are all symptoms of greed
The sixth extinction is a symptom of greed
