[Verse1]
Money talks these days, and everybody listens
We're whipping out our wallets trying to buy what we're missin'
Money screams and says "I need a slave"
Oh, I'm just trying to find someone to dig my grave

[Chorus]
Everybody's listenin', everybody's listenin', everybody's kissing a little ass
I said everybody's listenin', all those eyes are glistenin'
All these eyes

[Verse 2]
Those corporate kings do crazy things to the moral man's mind
Machines scream like newborns, artists drop like flies
Well I'm just tryin' to find someone to pay my bail
Money screams and says, "My soul is for sale"

[Chorus]
Everybody's listenin', everybody's listenin', all those eyes are glistenin'
I said everybody's listenin', every eye is glistenin'
All these eyes

[Bridge]
I need a maid to pick up my mess
Help me in the morning, help me get dressed
I'll pay you when I get paid
Well, I'll pay you when I get paid
I'll pay you when I get paid
I'll pay you when I get paid

[Outro]
Money talks these days, and everybody listens
Whatcha gonna do when the burglar says your money or your life?
Money talks these days
