I crushed up ergot and made it a paste I spread it on the dollar bills Everyone who touched it caught the disease For luscious bits of landfill
It sparked an epidemic of self hate They wanted it so bad they could kill Everyone believing everything ain't enough Trampling bodies on the tread mill
Makin' money, all things shiny (If you don't spend it, you are spent) Bullet into gun Barrel lips pout Finger in the ring Money into mouth
The first letter in Sydney is a dollar sign The first symbol in London is a pound The life ain't yours 'til you fuck it away The dream ain't yours until it's burned to the ground The city of beauty is built on the dead Temple of wealth is built on the poor Spend life just passing away 'til you get up off your belly and crawl
You are allowed to burn books, hope can rot Dreams go up in flames, that's ok We'll turn a blind eye if you burn a poor man But if you burn your money... You're going to pay
Anger is a currency, acidically mad Hatred is the new economy I am the inspiration of every wicked woman Viciously corrupt, greed is monogamy All power, all truth, all knowing, all destroying, all dying... not caring
