Love Versus Money Your Choice

Intelligence Knowledge Ivy League State Educated Working Class Upper Class Held in high regard Or a lowly security guard Single Parent Family of 10 Reared in a Pen Holidaying in the Hampton's Penthouse suite on the corner of 5th and Central Bus commute to work Or Chauffeur driven limos And Broadway shows Or pint of beer and salt and vinegar crisps Hand me downs and a handshake from dad for a birthday gift Can't buy love Can't put a monetary price upon it Its priceless Everything else is window dressing There are as many if not more Unhappy wealthy people than there are poor
