The Orion Experience
Blood & Money
[Intro]
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha!
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the dawning of a dark, dark age
Where deception and dishonesty is all the rage
The Man controls the media, ya eyes and ya ears
With music made by motherfuckin' Mouseketeers!
Now once upon a time you had a beautiful dream
Well, wake up! You're just a product of the war-machine
You call yourself a pacifist? You're just another punk
The rich are getting richer, so let's all get drunk and
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Sing with the masses, sing with the masses
[Chorus 1]
C'mon, c'mon and give us blood and money
Color TVs with supersonic s-s-s-sound
Bow down before the land of milk and honey
While we burn your people, burn your people to the ground
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
[Verse 2]
Come and watch the death of the American dream
Now the red, white, and blue is the red, gold, and green
The man controls the money, and he starts a war
But fight it? Nah, that's what the working class is for!
So he hides behind a bible, and he hides behind a flag
And he hides behind your brother in a bodybag
He hides behind the covers, yeah, 'cause while he sleeps
He's counting up the bodies like he's counting sheep! He goes…
[Pre-Chorus 2]
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven-thousand more!
(Who's keepin' score?)
[Chorus 2]
C'mon, c'mon and give us blood and money
Color TVs with supersonic s-s-s-sound
Bow down before the land of milk and honey
While we burn our bridges, burn our bridges to the ground
[Post-Chorus]
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
Ah-ha-ha! (Yeah-yeah!)
[Bridge]
Ah-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-a!
Ah-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-a!
[Outro]
Blood and money! (Ah-ha-ha!)
Blood and money! (Ah-ha-ha!)
Blood and money make the world go round! (Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-a!)
Blood and money! (Ah-ha-ha!)
Blood and money! (Ah-ha-ha!)
Blood and money make the world go round and round!
Go round and round!
Go round and...
