In no way does it interest me.

Money be hanged!
Or drown it in the tears of the poor.
Or strap it to a dozen sticks of dynamite.

I can’t stop thinking about money.
I want to be touched by money.
If it says ‘follow me’, then I will follow.
I will be money’s disciple.
I will die for money.
Up to the gallows you can take me
And I will not renounce money.
You can drown me in tears,
Strap me to a dozen sticks of dynamite.
I refuse to renounce money.

But wait! Money isn’t going to die for me.

Money is dead to me and I am dead to it.
Money has passed me by.
Money has passed.
Money has its own agenda.
I’m not on the agenda.
Money is sick of you as well.
Money is leaving here.
Money is returning from whence it came.
It won’t be back. No, it’s not coming back.
You can kiss goodbye to money.
Money says bye-bye.
It’s over.
Money says farewell.
Money won’t be found.
It’s not on any map.

If you do it will send someone to kill you.

It’s sick of your complaints.
After everything money has done and this is how you treat it?

If we make it king.
We can be its subjects.
In its empire the first will always be first and the last will always be last.
