The Holy Dollar
© 2005 Divine Intervention

TV dreams and football teams
Is that all we've got - left to live for?
Nothing else to believe in
Except for the power and the glory of the dollar

Must be another way - Gotta be another way

TV dreams and football teams
Where is the promised land?

Must be another way

No milk and honey flowin here

Gotta be another way

Just blood and oil soaks the sand

This is the land of the holy dollar
No time to look within
Spend it now to make you feel rich
Have fun now to forget that your soul is sick
We'll tell you all you need to know
Keep watching now 'cos the books are just for show

Making money's such a drag
Precious little - little free time

Must be another way

Tired like you wanna cry
So you go out and shop - until you die

Can you find a reason now
Not to live - live this sad lie

Must be another way

Something new to believe in

Gotta be another way

Something just a little - more worthwhile

This is the land of the holy dollar
And it's all you need to know
Spend it first then you'll have to earn it
Round and round you go
This is the land of the holy dollar
No need to know why we came
Buy your place in this world
It's not heaven no - but it's just the same

SOLO

This is the land of the holy dollar

Must be another way

No time to look within
Spend it now to make you feel rich

Gotta be another way

Have fun now to forget that your soul is sick
We'll tell you all you need to know

Must be another way

Keep watching now 'cos the books are just for show
