[00:10.51] Strange time we're living in, panic and hysteria
[00:12.99] Poor man learn the rich man don't care for ya
[00:15.53] Narcissist mindsets spread like malaria
[00:18.02] Sit back and watch the show, America!
[00:20.47] Britain split through fickle shit
[00:22.52] A government of hypocrites
[00:24.93] These counterfeit politicians sit
[00:27.34] In parliament, not adequate
[00:30.03] Needlessly bleeding resources all dry
[00:32.69] Turn a blind eye if it means a pay rise
[00:35.20] "Oh what a shame it would be I would die"
[00:37.29] If Number 10 Downing Street burned in a fire
[00:40.06] Only joking, only messing, don't be stressing
[00:42.16] I'm a peaceful adolescent, there's no need to be unpleasant
[00:44.63] Write my thesis in a rhyme scheme
[00:46.04] To analyse the brain
[00:47.14] While my fingers on the trigger of a money game
[00:49.22] Oh rain, rain, rain, rain
[00:52.07] A storm, it comes our way
[00:54.08] And those who rise through distorted lies
[00:56.90] Poisoning the veins
[00:58.64] But we like to point the blame, blame, blame, blame
[01:01.60] It's easier to blame
[01:03.97] But point the mirror at ourselves
[01:06.76] We're all part of this old money game
[01:10.99]
[01:17.57] (This old money game)
[01:22.43]
[01:26.87] (This old)
[01:29.03] Money is a game and the ladder we climb
[01:31.00] Turns a saint into a sinner with his finger in crime
[01:33.63] I'll break it down for you motherfuckers line by line
[01:36.00] This is business economics in a nursery rhyme
[01:38.62] She sells seashells on a seashore
[01:41.03] But the value of these shells will fall
[01:43.54] Due to the laws of supply and demand
[01:45.94] No one wants to buy shells 'cause there's loads on the sand
[01:48.21] Step one, you must create a sense of scarcity
[01:50.46] Shells will sell much better if the people think they're rare, you see
[01:52.58] Bear with me, take as many shells as you can find and hide 'em
[01:55.36] On an island stockpile 'em high until they're rarer than a diamond
[01:58.19] Step two, you gotta make the people think that they want 'em
[02:00.37] Really want 'em, really fuckin' want 'em, hit 'em like Bronson
[02:02.95] Influencers, product placement, featured prime time entertainment
[02:05.28] If you haven't got a shell then you're just a fucking wasteman
[02:08.14] Three, it's monopoly, invest inside some property
[02:10.52] Start a corporation, make a logo, do it properly
[02:12.72] "Shells must sell", that will be your new philosophy
[02:15.08] Swallow all your morals, they're a poor man's quality
[02:17.97] Four, expand, expand, expand
[02:20.34] Clear forest, make land, fresh blood on hand
[02:22.66] Five, why just shells?
[02:23.95] Why limit your self? She sells seashells, sell oil as well!
[02:27.34] Six, guns, sell stocks, sell diamonds
[02:29.50] Sell rocks, sell water to a fish, sell the time to a clock
[02:32.06] Seven, press on the gas, take your foot off the brakes
[02:34.92] Run to be the president of the United States
[02:37.17] Eight, big smile mate, big wave that's great
[02:39.63] Now the truth is overrated, tell lies out the gate
[02:42.19] Nine, polarise the people, controversy is the game
[02:44.71] It don't matter if they hate you if they all say your name
[02:47.24] Ten, the world is yours
[02:49.62] Step out on a stage to a round of applause
[02:51.81] You're a liar, a cheat, a devil, a whore
[02:54.66] And you sell seashells on the seashore
[02:57.16] Rain, rain, rain, rain
[02:59.25] A storm, it comes our way
[03:01.51] And those who rise through distorted lies
[03:04.27] Poisoning the veins
[03:05.92] But we like to point the blame, blame, blame, blame
[03:09.09] It's easier to blame
[03:11.23] But point the mirror at ourselves
[03:14.02] We're all part of this old money game
[03:18.52]
[03:24.97] (This old money game)
[03:29.86]
[03:34.29] (This old)
