A Big Hole In Your Heart (song)

Isn't it tragic and funny How everyone chases money It's got you right from the start Tears out a big hole in your heart And everyone knows that it's just a suppose But nobody gives As long as the money keeps flowing and growing We love what it is We work for one another Eight long hours a day The buck you take from your brother To somebody else you will pay The merry-go-round has a beautiful sound The money machine And Uncle Joe Bile, he sits on his pile He's livin' the dream There's a kid livin' down your street No money for shoes on his feet He begs you for change Now isn't that strange That someone could be so undignified And lost Knowing the value of nothing But not the cost Here comes a household name A company with no shame They have friends in high places With silvery hair and grey faces And no-body knows who they are but they own Almost everything They straddle the landscape and block out the sun But I hope they hear me sing I think it's really funny How everyone chases money It's got you right from the start Tears out a big hole in your heart
