Money And The Ego Lyrics

Make my house of bricks and I'll stick here  
When the world comes crashing down around me  
Make your arms a willow tree  
And you can bend with me anywhere I'm going
 
*  Sometimes it's hard to see anything lovely  
    All the people around me  
    Going for the money and the money and the ego
 
**   How can you ask me why 
       I need to know before I try?  
       I've got to be sure there's more  
       Than the money and the money and the ego
 
Keep your eyes on me  
And I'll look to you so I can see what I am here for  
Pull the wool over my eyes  
Please kiss this day goodbye, only you can get me going

*  Sometimes it's hard to see anything lovely  
    All the people around me  
    Going for the money and the money and the ego
 
**   How can you ask me why 
       I need to know before I try?  
       I've got to be sure there's more  
       Than the money and the money and the ego

When giving up is all you got and giving up is all you want  
You hear yourself say you lost the will, the power  
When giving up is all you got and giving up is all you want  
Don't be afraid to sit down in your shower  
You can stay in there for hours
 
Make my house of bricks and I'll stick here  
When the world comes crashing down around me

*  Sometimes it's hard to see anything lovely  
    All the people around me  
    Going for the money and the money and the ego
 
**   How can you ask me why 
       I need to know before I try?  
       I've got to be sure there's more  
       Than the money and the money and the ego

2x Got to be sure there's more, Money and the money and the ego
