You Can't Fool Your Money

You hear it from your neighbour And on the street as well So do yourself a favour Forget the news they tell But what may seem most funny Regardless what you think and do You can’t fool your money More than your money can fool you You can buy more expensive Work more, rest a bit less See your hard-earned finances Cost cheaper than you guessed You saved more than your mummy But no matter what you do You can’t fool your money More than your money can fool you Vote Tories or vote Labour Support the refugees Or don’t vote anymore Share none of your hard fees Go get some milk and honey But whatever you may do You can’t fool your money More than money can fool you You can pay more of tax Use less of health support You can get a full relax At some pebble beach resort Book for a week most sunny A room with a sea view Checked out, count your money You’ll see who’s fooling who Although you know the rules It goes like you can’t win More money make more fools They live under your skin You know it’s not so funny You can say that it’s not true But you can’t fool your money More than your money can fool you..
