Money Can'T Buy Happiness
When all of your hope hangs in a 2 percent
You set out on a mission to find out where the other 98 went
It lies in the hands of something sweet has honey
As dangerous as fire, of course its money
It brings you up and takes you down
It will buy you a fancy house in town
It will destroy your life if you don't have enough
You'll leave your wife when the getting is tough
You can buy things with it that are illegal without fail
but don't worry if you have enough it can get you out of jail
It can make you look pretty when your really not
It can get you out of winter and too a tropical spot
It can save you and give you an education
It can get you out of a sticky situation
It can buy fake affections and desires
It can rebuild things destroyed by fires
but unfortunately for some it has no affect on people who are real
People who have extreme emotions and can actually feel
To keep people in my life forever I would give my every penny
But honestly, I don't think I have that many.
