Version 1
Cm Cm Gm Gm
Cm
Strange time we're living in, panic and hysteria
Cm
Poor man learn the rich man don't care for ya
Gm
Narcissist mindsets spread like malaria
Gm
Sit back and watch the show
America!
Cm
Britain split through fickle shit
Cm
A government of hypocrites
Gm
These counterfeit politicians sit
Gm
In parliament, not adequate
Cm
Needlessly bleeding resources all dry
Cm
Turn a blind eye if it means a pay rise
Gm
Oh what a shame it would be I would die
Gm
If Number 10 Downing Street burned in a fire
Cm
Only joking, only messing, don’t be stressing
Cm
I’m a peaceful adolescent, there’s no need to be unpleasant
Gm
Write my thesis in a rhyme scheme
To analyse the brain
Gm
While my fingers on the trigger of a money game
Cm
Oh rain, rain, rain, rain
Cm
A storm it comes our way
Gm
And those who rise through distorted lies
Gm
Poisoning the veins
Cm
But we like to point the blame, blame, blame, blame
Cm
It’s easier to blame
Gm
But point the mirror at ourselves
Gm
We’re all part of this old money game
Cm Cm Gm Gm
Cm Cm Gm Gm
Cm
Money is a game and the ladder we climb
Cm
Turns a saint into a sinner with his finger in crime
Gm
I'll break it down for you motherfuckers line by line
Gm
This is business economics in a nursery rhyme
Cm
She sells sea shells on a sea shore
Cm
But the value of these shells will fall
Gm
Due to the laws of supply and demand
Gm
No one wants to buy shells 'cause there's loads on the sand
Step 1
Cm
You must create a sense of scarcity,
Cm
shells will sell much better
if people think they’re rare you see
Gm
Bare with me, take as many shells as you can find
Gm
and hide em on an island stock pile em high
until they’re rarer than a diamond
Step 2
Cm
You gotta make the people think that they want 'em
Cm
Really want 'em, really fuckin want 'em
Hit 'em like Bronson
Gm
Influencers, product placement, featured prime time entertainment
Gm
If you haven’t got a shell then you're just a fucking waste man
Cm
3. its monopoly, invest inside some property,
Cm
start a corporation, make a logo, do it properly
Gm
Shells must sell, that will be your new philosophy,
Gm
swallow all your morals they're a poor mans quality
Cm Cm
4. Expand, expand, expand, clear forest,
make land, fresh blood on hand
Gm
5. Why just shells? why limit your self?
Gm
She sells sea shells sell oil as well
Cm
6. Guns, sell stocks, sell diamonds sell rocks
Cm
sell water to a fish, sell the time to a clock
Gm
7. Press on the gas take your foot off the brakes
- run to be the president of the United States
Cm
8. Big smile mate, big wave that's great,
Cm
now the truth is overrated tell lies out the gate
Gm
9. Polarise the people, controversy is the game,
Gm
it don't matter if they hate you if they all say your name
Cm Cm
10. The world is yours , step out on a stage
Gm
to a round of applause , you're a liar, a cheat, a devil, a whore
Gm
And you sell sea shells on the sea shore
Cm
Oh rain, rain, rain, rain
Cm
A storm it comes our way
Gm
And those who rise through distorted lies
Gm
Poisoning the veins
Cm
But we like to point the blame, blame, blame, blame
Cm
It’s easier to blame
Gm
But point the mirror at ourselves
Gm
We’re all part of this old money game
Cm Cm Gm Gm
