Songtexte: Kinks. Money Talks.

Show me a man who says he can live without bread
And I'll show you a man who's a liar in debt
There's no one alive who can't be purchased or enticed
There's no man alive who wouldn't sell for a price

Money talks and we're the living proof
There ain't no limit to what money can do
Money talks, money talks
Money can't breathe and money can't see
But when I pull out a fiver people listen to me

Money can't run and money can't walk
But when I write out a check I swear to God I hear money talk
Money talks and baby when you've been bought
You pay attention every time money talks
Money talks, money talks

Money talks and there's no doubt about it
Money talks and we can't live without it
What's the point of living unless you've got money?
I just couldn't function without money
Money talks, money talks

Money talks, money talks
Show me an upright respected man
And I'll have him licking my boots when I put money in his hand
It rots your heart, it gets to your soul
Before you know where you are you're a slave to the green gold

Money talks and we're the living proof
There ain't no limit to what money can do
Money talks you out of your self-respect
The more you crave it, the cheaper you get

Money talks, money talks
Money buys you time and people listen
Money can buy a smile and make life worth living
If you're ugly money can improve you
I just couldn't face the world without mazuma
Money talks, money talks
Money talks, money talks
