Macy Gray feat. Pharoahe Monch Lyrics
"It Ain't the Money"

Heart of mine, milk and honey
it ain't the money now we know

Doin' lines, ain't it funny
that it ain't the money now we know

After the money they lust
sell their souls for the unlimited cash flow.
In God we trust but that's never in class though,
enron, worldcom, ceo assholes
a monopoly to collect whenever they pass go.
Big screen tv's nigga please,
there will be no alerts b4 they search the siege
13 hrs in the seal with the 13 leaves
13 steps that it takes to see 13 thieves.

Hidee high, lowdy low
get up and go to the show

Every time I get low
I get up and go to the show

I fell in love with her once she was evil I remember,
her 18th birthday she became legal tender,
some say she was heaven sent
with skeletons in her closet,
traded herself for drugs and stayed inside of her wallet.
I know women who couldn't have her who became alcoholics,
in the fetal position bent over toilets
and calling for earl with pains in their bladders
so people listen when I tell you it really don't matter.

Betcha giving head to a movie star
betcha gotta llama riding in your car
betcha u gotta tv built in your jet skis.
Betcha giving head to a movie star
betcha gotta llama riding in your car
betcha u gotta tv built in your jet skis.

Hidee high,lowdy low
get up and go to the show

Ain't it funny how the money
makes the honey taste like nothing
you can't have no more? Now we know.
Ain't it funny how the money
makes the honey taste like nothing
you can't have no more? Now we know.
Ain't it funny how the money
makes the honey taste just like nothing-
people act like they have but they're bluffing
now we know that it don't mean nothing

Peace of mind, fill my tummy
it ain't the money now we know

Hard to find got my something
it ain't the money now we know

Hidee high, lowdy low
get up and go to the show

Now we know

Now we know
