Money Power Glory
It’d be nice if dentists could heal his sores for free
But they can’t—who’ll help them when they need
Orthidontistry
It’d be dope if I could use that resort to ski
But I can’t—didn’t pay the men who built it
Orthogonally
You talk lots about pragmatism
You, the doctor of practicality
I two-step in ideals
Shine like an ancient vista
I deal decks in magic only
I know money’s another word, for free—dom
But I don’t know why
But I don’t know why
Yo I know money’s another word for free—dom
But yo, I don’t know why
I don’t grow Y
Doo-doo, doo
Doo-dee troo
The sun also rises on those who fail the call
Like I did—I’m addicted to First World modernity
It pinnacled me
What stops me from wanting to take you for
All that you got—like you did me, lying to my face
Pinnaclin’ mе
I want safety and security for my
Family, duty do—duty true
I want a lakе house to cry for your sufferin’ in
Due to you, God be true
I know freedom’s another word for not-be-dommed
But it rhymes with X
But it rhymes with X
I know freedom’s another word for not-be-dommed
But it rhymes with sex
But it rhymes with sex
Doo-dee doo
Doo-dees troo
The other side of irony is you get serious
What’s good and bad? What can you exist?
I’m addicted to the First World, it’s true
I want freedoms for you
I want not-be-dommmed be true
I want to love God ’cause She’s good
But she helps me too
But she helps me too
I want to love God just because She’s good
But karma’s true
I want to not be doomed
I know not-be-dommed is just another word for pow-wer
We can’t help but fear
We can’t help but see ’Er
I know not-be-dommed is just another for po-wer!
We can’t not fear
We can’t not see Her
I just want to be happy at the end of the day
With my loved ones at their peak
With my loved ones at their peak
I just want to be happy at the end of a life
I want my friends to seek
Blessed are the meek
