Three cheers for the money men
For they alone can get what they seek
Is it better having failed in being strong
To succeed in being weak?
And if you're told exactly what to have
You grab it just as quickly as you can

The firemen came around
And put all the fires out
And cried everybody down
Cause nobody had the heart to please themselves

You forget love, you forget love
Doesn't hold up on a weak heart
And being beatеn down doesn't easily get up
You forgеt love, you forget love

Those men in England sending bills across the water
Tend to make you feel you ought to give up
And when you're tethered there forever
You have to seem as if you do it for love
Whatever pays you back for what you've done
It will never be what you wanted

The firemen came around
And put all the fires out
And cried everyone down
Cause nobody had the heart to please themselves
You forget love, you forget love
Doesn't hold up on a weak heart
And being beaten down doesn't easily get up
You forget love, you forget love
