Money Rules the World

Politicians bought and sold
And they're doing just what they're told
Pretending that they got our backs
But they belong to Exxon and Goldman Sachs
They're standing with the flag unfurled
But it's money, it's money that rules the world

They're trying to say to me and you
Corporations are people too
The way that it seems to me
They're trying to steal our democracy
So many accusations hurled
But it's money, it's money that rules the world

I used to watch the eagle fly
See him soaring across the sky
But now it makes me wanna cry
I'm afraid that it soon will die
So listеn, ev'ry boy and girl
It's money, money, monеy that rules the world
