Money, get away.
Get a good job with good pay and youre okay.
Money, its a gas.
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash.
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think Ill buy me a football team.

Money, get back.
Im all right jack keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, its a hit.
Dont give me that do goody good bullshit.
Im in the high-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a lear jet.

[sung in an ominous dancehall chant]

Money will make a good man bad - yah yah
Money will make 'nuff man bad - yah yah
money will make bredren and bredren go to war

if you no careful it will make you lose your mind, yas!

If you worship it, destined fi a fall
very addictive, watch, be selective,

Nevah remember when dem used to beg a dollah
Nevah remember when dem used to dead fi hungah

Dem a rush in and a kill fi de dollah
Fi de love of money man a kill 'em owna brodda

Powah is money, money is powah

Boy if want trouble will get it, 'pon de double
'Pon de paypah chase, boy na watch no face
When every lickle 'ting dem want fi done de place

No bodda play wit' yuh life, yah mi friend!
Well well well - well...

Money will make a good man bad - yah yah yah yas
Money will make 'nuff man bad - yah yah yah yas

Money, its a crime.
Share it fairly but dont take a slice of my pie.
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today.
But if you ask for a raise its no surprise that theyre
Giving none away.

You was definitely in the right. that geezer was cruising for a
Bruising!

Screaming and telling him why he wasnt coming up on freely
