PERSPICACIOUSNESS OF MONEY
PERSPICACIOUSNESS OF MONEY
LIVES, WHICH HAVE NO MONEY
THO PEOPLE STILL LIVING LIVES
MONEY ONLY A NOTE
A NOTE FOR SOMEONE TO TAKE AWAY
A NOTE FOR THEIR BOAT
A TAKEN NOTE WITH NO VOTE
VALUES ALWAYS DESENDING
PRODUCTS ALWAYS INCREASING
NOW, MOST CAN NOT AFFORD
COMPANIES CONSTANTLY GOUGING
AS THEY FILL THEIR POCKETS WITH GREED
GOVERNMENTS CONSTANTLY TAXING
LEAVING THE PEOPLE UNABLE TO FEED
PEOPLE WORKING TILL THEY DROP
THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT STOP
MONEY CONSTANTLY WASTED
WITH NO LONGER A CASH CROP
STILL MONEY ONLY THE NOTE
PEOPLE NEEDS SOME OF THEIR NOTESTO LIVE THEY’RE LIVES WITH HOPES
EVERYONE’S CONSTANTLY SEEING
WHAT PEOPLE IN HIGH PLACES ARE BEING
THE LIEING, THE CHEATING, THE STEALING
HURTING THE PEOPLE, WHO ARE FEELING
THE DOPE
YET SOME PERSONS ARE MEER PUPPETS
TELLING US NOT TO WORRYAS OUR RECESSION MAKES US CRUMBLE
AND TAXES GET HIGHER AND EVEN HIGHER YET
THE PERSPICACIOUSNESS OF MONEY
YOU AND I HAVE SEEN
IS NO LONGER FUNNY
WHEN IT TAKES AWAY OUR DREAMS
