I know a poor man who lives like a king
He's hired by a rich man to guard all his things
He swims in his pool and he lives in his home
The rich man's always gone because he
Works to make money so that he can live to
Works to make money so that he can live to
Works to make money so that he can live to
Work, to live, to work
Life is more than breakfast and death
Common sense tells you, prepare for what's next
But you're taught from a child not to think about death
And so you live only for what you can see
Things that don't last infinitely, you just
Work to make money so that he can live to
Work to make money so that he can live to
Work to make money so that he can live to
Work, to live, to work
Life is more than breakfast and death
What's your plan for what's coming next?
If you don't take care of yourself
Then neither will anybody else
Think of all the money you'll make, ohohohoho
If I die before I should wake, where will it go?
Better get ready to face the unknown
And don't build your future on sticks and on stones
You can take it with you
So throw it away,it only weighs you down, you
Work to make money so that he can live to
Work to make money so that he can live to
Work to make money so that he can live to
Work, to live, to work
To live, to die, why?
