Oh money, there's so many things I'll never learn Say when to save something and when to let it burn They tell you not base your worth upon material effects When nothing but the soul survives But until we get to sail beyond the veil and leave the physical Everybody needs to be alive Oh money there's so many things I'll never know How to suffer under and pretend to let it go But if you want to rest your case upon the letter of the law When the spirit of the law applies Then I guess we gotta hate the crime and learn to love the criminal Everybody needs to be alive Dead money help me keep these wicked thoughts away (Don't they get) closer every day Devil or angel It took a little bit to see the face in front of me What's it gonna be Devil or angel Oh money there's so many things I've never done Does the river taste the way it did when we were young Does anybody wonder what's beyond the middle of the night when The faces in the dark arrive? Do you think you have the right to own the last of all the medicine? Everybody needs to be alive
