Let The Dollar Circulate
[Verse 1]
Inflation getting higher
Makes it hard on the buyer
Unemployment on the rise
Gasoline engines filled with flies
Rent being paid late
Please
[Chorus]
Let the dollar circulate
Let the dollar circulate
[Verse 2]
Interest rates going up
Seems like no value in the buck
Meat prices up to stay
Utilities are on their way
Airlines are running late
Please
[Chorus]
Let the dollar circulate
Let it, let it, let it, let it
Let it, let it, let it circulate
Circulatate, circulate, circulate, circulate
[Verse 3]
Phone bills are in a race
Now we're asked to join the pace
Welfare lines are long and static
Someone tell me where the money went
Creditors won’t even let us skate
Please
[Chorus]
Let the dollar circulate
Don't hold on to the inflation
Let the dollar, dollar, dollar
Dollar, dollar, dollar, dollar circulate
[Verse 4]
City with millions going broke
Industries polluting the air with smoke
Politicians talkin' crazy
Workers being so lazy
Is it all because of Watergate?
Please
[Chorus]
Let the dollar circulate
Let the dollar circulate
Let it, let it, let it, let it, let it circulate
Circulatate, circulate, circulate
(Circulate)
(Circulate)
[Verse 5]
Depression is on again
Either way it’s still the same
Schools are crying too
They can't do the job they wanna do
We can go to the moon and float in space
Please
[Chorus]
Let it, let it, let it, let the dollar
Let the dollar, let the dollar circulate
Let it circulate, circulate, circulate (Let it circulate)
Circulate, circulate (Let the dollar circulate)
[Outro]
(Let it circulate)
(Let the dollar circulate)
(Let it circulate)
(Let the dollar circulate)
(Let it circulate)
(Let the dollar circulate)
Crime's at an all-time high (Let it circulate)
Only the richest get by (Let the dollar circulate)
Poor people waiting their turn (Let it circulate)
Twelve months to see what they've earned (Let the dollar circulate)
Penalty charges if they're late (Let it circulate)
Gotta let it, let it, let it, let it (Let the dollar circulate)
Circulate, let the dollar circulate (Let it circulate)
Circulate, circulate, circulate (Let the dollar circulate)
Let the dollar circulate (Let it circulate)
(Let the dollar circulate)
