LYRICS to MONEY SUCKS THE CONGRESS DOWN

Money sucks the Congress down
They see it and their brains confound
They can be bought year-around
They’re not by duty bound

They used to sneak their way around
Snatch up their bribes without a sound
But since corruption's been unbound
There’s no shame to be found.
On that we will expound

Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money

If you happen to be rich from your stocks
Or the bribes in your stocking
As a tenant of the senate where you sit
You can easily ignore everything
But the profit opportunity
Blinded by the money you can get

It’s another bait and switch
Got you there with the help of the donors
And they moan and they groan quite a lot
But they handed you the win.
Take the call gotta, stall for your owners
On your 14-karat yacht! What?

Congress has been bought and sold
Sniffing about to find more gold.
It's a corporate stranglehold
And watching it unfold
Is awful to behold.

Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money

If the country needs a bomb or a war
Or a fleet of whatever,
Money's there right away, no delay.
If it happens that a big corporation
Says they need a bigger bailout
They will get it on the very same day.

Not a crumb back to you
For the taxes that you pay
'Cause you need to be protected
Socialism kept at bay
Education, living wage
Healthy care for old age
Can’t be done cost too high
So we'll leave you there to die

Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money

[Dance Break]

Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money
Money money money money

When you haven't any coal in the stove
And you freeze in the winter
And you curse to the wind at your fate
When you haven't any shoes on your feet
And your coat's thin as paper
And you look 30 pounds underweight

Don’t expect to get the help that you need
From the Congress or the Senate
Start pulling up the straps on your boots
Never mind the raw hypocrisy that lies
At the bottom of their tenet
That they''re living by the labor of your fruits

Money sucks the Congress down
They see it and their brains confound
They can be bought year-around
They’re not by duty bound

Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Give a little get a little
Money, money, money, money
Now that corruptions been unbound
There is no shame at all to be found.
Money sucks the Congress down
It sucks the Congress down
