everybody's trying to get filthy rich off of somebody else's money
grandma worked her whole life sewing at a shirt factory
she was saving for retirement
she had 'em take a little out every week
but then a big man up in a high rise
he cashed in his options and run
took all her money and buddy that ain't funny
now granny's work will never be done
everybody's trying to get filthy rich off somebody else's money
me and my friends we were talking 'bout that
how with all my brains and all your cash
everybody's trying to get filthy rich off of someone else's money
i saw a preacher on the tv with big diamond rings on his hand
he was begging for some money
he said to send us every penny you can
i guess the good lord's got a mortgage and a payment on yacht in the keys
so we better keep sending our hard earned living to those god fearing folks on tv
yeah with all my brains and all your cash
everybody's trying to get filthy rich off of someone else's money
everybody's trying to get big and rich off of someone esle's money
