Alan Parsons Project - Money Talks - Текст песни

(Lead vocal - John Miles)

    Money don't grow on a money tree
    The more you take the less for me
    Money don't buy what you really need
    It make an iceman cry, a stoneman bleed

    But when you get right down to it, no matter who you are
    It rules your life like a virgin queen
    One day you might get over it, but in the meantime
    It rules the world likea green machine

    In the bank, in a box, money talks
    In the black, on the rocks, money talks, money talks

    Money don't lose in the money game
    It drags you down like a ball and chain
    So money don't come with a guarantee
    It make a fool of you, it make a fool of me

    But when you get right down to it, no matter what you say
    It ties you down but it can set you free
    Some day you might get over it, but in the meantime
    It burns you up in the first degree

    Moscow, Bangkok, money talk
    Park Lane, Boardwalk, money talk

    But when you get right down to it, no matter what you try
    You deal the cards, give the wheel a spin
    One day you might get over it but everybody knows
    It's heads you lose and it's tails they win
    Don't have too much to show for it, that's the way it goes
    You roll the dice and they cash you in

    Pinball, jukebox, money talks
    Redskins, White Sox, money talks
    Billboard, Cashbox, money talks
