Big money goes around the world
Big money underground
Big money got a mighty voice

Big money make no sound
Big money pull a million strings
Big money hold the prize

Big money weave a mighty web
Big money draw the flies


Sometimes pushing people around
Sometimes pulling out the rug
Sometimes pushing all the buttons

Sometimes pulling out the plug
It's the power and the glory
It's a war in paradise

It's a cinderella story
On a tumble of the dice


Big money goes around the world
Big money take a cruise
Big money leave a mighty wake

Big money leave a bruise
Big money make a million dreams
Big money spin big deals

Big money make a mighty head
Big money spin big wheels


Sometimes building ivory towers
Sometimes knocking castles down
Sometimes building you a stairway --

Lock you underground
It's that old-time religion
it's the kingdom they would rule

It's the fool on television
Getting paid to play the fool


Big money goes around the world
Big money give and take
Big money done a power of good

Big money make mistakes
Big money got a heavy hand
Big money take control

Big money got a mean streak
Big money got no soul...
