Song | Dirty Money |
Artist | Sick of It All |
Album | Based On A True Story |
There’s only dirty money in this system we extol | |
Can we live with it? | |
How long ‘till it implodes? | |
And our selfish wicked ways lavishly provide | |
For ourselves | |
A shameless love of wealth | |
On our bed of roses we wear a crown of thorns | |
We toss and turn and still want more | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN’T GET ENOUGH | |
Living in the rat race, desperate for the cheese | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN’T GET ENOUGH | |
Pushing through the rat race, rewarded for our greed | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN’T GET ENOUGH | |
Urged to keep morality from getting in the way of the dream | |
We snatch at dirty money | |
Just as soon as it appears | |
Can we live with it? | |
We know that it’s unclean | |
And our selfish wicked way places all the blame on ourselves | |
Cause we all play the game | |
They say “more money, more problems” | |
Even though we see it’s a pretty good fix | |
Tortured by human aspirations | |
What we want | |
What we need | |
What’s beyond | |
And in-between | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN’T GET ENOUGH | |
Living in the rat race, desperate for the cheese | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN’T GET ENOUGH | |
Pushing through the rat race, rewarded for our greed | |
WOAH-OH, WE’RE UNDER ITS CONTROL | |
The dirty money system rules the world | |
WOAH-OH, WE’RE UNDER ITS CONTROL | |
The dirty money system rules the world | |
WOAH-OH, WE’RE UNDER ITS CONTROL | |
The dirty money system rules the world |
There' s only dirty money in this system we extol | |
Can we live with it? | |
How long ' till it implodes? | |
And our selfish wicked ways lavishly provide | |
For ourselves | |
A shameless love of wealth | |
On our bed of roses we wear a crown of thorns | |
We toss and turn and still want more | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN' T GET ENOUGH | |
Living in the rat race, desperate for the cheese | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN' T GET ENOUGH | |
Pushing through the rat race, rewarded for our greed | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN' T GET ENOUGH | |
Urged to keep morality from getting in the way of the dream | |
We snatch at dirty money | |
Just as soon as it appears | |
Can we live with it? | |
We know that it' s unclean | |
And our selfish wicked way places all the blame on ourselves | |
Cause we all play the game | |

Even though we see it' s a pretty good fix | |
Tortured by human aspirations | |
What we want | |

NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN' T GET ENOUGH | |
Living in the rat race, desperate for the cheese | |
NICE AND STUFFED BUT STILL CAN' T GET ENOUGH | |
Pushing through the rat race, rewarded for our greed | |
WOAHOH, WE' RE UNDER ITS CONTROL | |
The dirty money system rules the world | |
WOAHOH, WE' RE UNDER ITS CONTROL | |
