Killing Joke - Money Is Not Our God lyrics

Nine tenths of the law that is sick
Is possession
Life expressed in matter is a blasphemy
Success defined by acquisition stinks!
So busy trying to make a
Living I forget about living yes, I do
So busy trying to make a
Living I forget about life
Come on, let's live!

The best things I found in
Life were my birthright
Green fields mean more to me
Than a brand new car
Will you swap your hi-fi for
A clear blue sky? Will you cash in all your
Shares for God's clean air?
Is your answer yes or no
To these painful truths? Hmm?
Is your answer yes or no
To these painful truths?
Do you grovel to your master?
Do you beg like a dog?
First things first, repeat to yourself:
Argh, money! Money is not our god!
Push it in, do it like this

Mine! The best things in life are free
Mine! I own the beach and the blazing sunset
Mine! I own the waves and the fresh air
Mine! I drink the milk of the
Stars in this beautiful moment
Say to yourself: All these things are mine!
Repeat after me! Money's not our God!

Do you grovel to your master?
Do you beg like a dog?
First things first, repeat to yourself:
Ahh, money!
