Passing it off as nothing but paper, Used to burn dreams of future prosperity, The government is of us the raper, Everyone with regards money lacks sincerity… Money is called the root of all evil, And I have to agree with this, As it has caused in this old world, Great amounts of upheaval… Is it worth being rich, Or is it a bitch, Just once would I like to try, Or maybe I should just stick with getting high… © ed $ 3/9/08
