PermanereMr. Money:But then when it's silentAnd the lights from the bars go downI need comforting'Cause somewhere there deep insideFeelings of loss ariseAnd I hate to lose!III: I Raise My GlassThey say it's lonely at the topThen I'm as lonely as can beBut I am not too sorryYou see, I've chosen this companyI got myself a winning teamIt's Me, Myself and IYou bet it's lonely at the top old friendsAnd I'm here today to tell you suckers why!(Dea Pecuniae!)Dea PecuniaeMoney rules...They claim that I get paid for my big ResponsibilityBut hey, you know...That is just a lame excuseFor my egocentricityThey say that we're really the same you and IAnd I truly do agreeYou seeJust like meYou live for meUntil the day you diebig responsibilityTo all of you who suck it up and pay my debtsTo all of you who think that my lifestyle does not affect the environmentOr the povertyWell, maybe not more than marginally anywayGood for you!And you know what?Here's to you...for me to throw in the face of democracyFor those who help making solidarity ideologically untrendyAnd charity individualistically idiotic, unsmart and characteristically bendyI salute thee you poor bastards 'cause you all nod while I sit at your tableonly "thank you" you will ever getSo come on now - raise your glasses!Here's to YOUThere will be nothing left - no!Nothing left......but money
