|
Ever since the world began, |
|
Satan's followed every man. |
|
Trapping evil if he can, |
|
I tell you now his greatest plan. |
|
Invented when I cannot tell, |
|
Defied the thoughts of man so well. |
|
Man wants money for his need, |
|
But soon it sows its evil seed. |
|
Unhappiness it only brings, |
|
As man wants more and better things. |
|
If not enough the evil lies, |
|
But soon you'll find somebody dies. |
|
Throughout the years there have been wars, |
|
Power and richness have been the cause. |
|
Trapped in money's evil net, |
|
Man wants more than he can get. |
|
You don't need money. |
|
No, no, no, no, |
|
You don't need money. |
|
No, no, no, no, |
|
You don't need money. |
|
... etc. |
|
It'll never bring you love, |
|
No more than the sun above. |
|
You'll never see the end, |
|
The money you will surely spend. |
|
But ask for help if you sin, |
|
Reclaim yourself, what a state you're in. |
|
The devil has you in his grasp, |
|
There ain't no mercy you can ask. |
|
More and more you will need, |
|
You're strangled in the clutch of greed. |
|
You can't get out, no place to go, |
|
You sold your soul - the answer's no! |
