Greensky Bluegrass - All for Money lyrics
[Greensky Bluegrass - All for Money lyrics]
What if we had done it all for money
And nobody ever even really cared?
Who can you pay to come and clear it all away
To start fresh and earn it all again?
Maybe it's something like Elvis
On a big screen
And someone lied in your dreams
If you're gonna put the hard
Times on poor choices
You gotta put the good ones on luck
You better save something for
To get you smarter
For when you're dumb, done
And all out of work
Hope it's not like Darwin and his silly ideas
They're only right if they believe
How could the top feel so empty?
Get to the point, nothing left but to fall
They used to love this
Why don't they like it?
When I'm, just trying to grow
Could be like sending people into outer space
With no real finish to the race, the race
(To space, to space)
Making money from nonsense (Nonsense)
And living large on the useless (Useless)
And now I am surrounded (Surrounded)
Feeling like a captive (Captive)
Spent too much time looking for
The right song to sing
It matters more the love it brings
But, if you need a voice, I'm yours, friend
For something better in the end
What if we had done it all for money
And nobody ever even really cared?
Who can you pay to come and clear it all away
To start fresh and earn it all again?
Probably life's just like Dorothy
In a weird dream
And nothing's as hard as it may seem
And nobody ever even really cared?
Who can you pay to come and clear it all away
To start fresh and earn it all again?
Maybe it's something like Elvis
On a big screen
And someone lied in your dreams
If you're gonna put the hard
Times on poor choices
You gotta put the good ones on luck
You better save something for
To get you smarter
For when you're dumb, done
And all out of work
Hope it's not like Darwin and his silly ideas
They're only right if they believe
How could the top feel so empty?
Get to the point, nothing left but to fall
They used to love this
Why don't they like it?
When I'm, just trying to grow
Could be like sending people into outer space
With no real finish to the race, the race
(To space, to space)
Making money from nonsense (Nonsense)
And living large on the useless (Useless)
And now I am surrounded (Surrounded)
Feeling like a captive (Captive)
Spent too much time looking for
The right song to sing
It matters more the love it brings
But, if you need a voice, I'm yours, friend
For something better in the end
What if we had done it all for money
And nobody ever even really cared?
Who can you pay to come and clear it all away
To start fresh and earn it all again?
Probably life's just like Dorothy
In a weird dream
And nothing's as hard as it may seem
