Song Lyrics

Hey yo, money makes the world go 'round, we know that
Is it gonna change your life if you own that?
Is it gonna have you high in the sky where you're so glad
Will it just define what you're known as?
While I'm wishing that I had a mint,
I'd share it round if I had some riches
See with money though yo it can't bring us happiness,
But it will bring the things we'd be happy with Indeed
While the homeless are beggin' for some change,
There are some who are beggin' for a change,
You disagree, start beggin' for a change,
We need change but everything's the same
I can't be another one runnin' in a rat race,
Livin' in a life where it's all about the cash mate,
So forgive me, I'm a go and practice me,
Cause I feel like that's for me so

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that,
I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back,
So I throw it, throw it all away,
I'll throw it, throw it all away!

Yo meet generation yes, we party so much,
Got our folks worried that our hearts will blow up
It's funny that we can't say no but,
I hope we don't hit it too hard and go nuts
Yo we will know in time, man this shit that kills us
Is why we all feel so alive
And get paid on Friday from workin' all week man,
Forget it all by blowin' it on the weekend
And some will say 60 is a fool,
The kids are beginning because he didn't finish school
Yo if it wasn't for me mate,
Workin' in the office on weekdays is not what I'll be mate
It ain't cause I'm broke that I'm wantin' to seek change,
I'm a treat this like my job and I'll see pay,
So forgive me, maybe it's my lack of sleep,
But I feel like I have to dream so

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that,
I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back,
So I throw it, throw it all away,
I'll throw it, throw it all away!

Hey yo I can't be one of them dudes no more,
I ain't gonna be wearin' them shoes no more,
Won't waste time all for the loot no more,
With no idea what I can use it for,
Yeah, yo I don't wanna work till I'm fifty,
And then spent what I've earnt till I'm sixty,
So forgive me, I know it's got a hold on me,
But no way is it controllin' me no,

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that,
I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back,
So I throw it, throw it all away,
I'll throw it, throw it all away!

I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that,
I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back,
So I throw it, throw it all away,
I'll throw it, throw it all away!
