    "Hey now, maybe we can find a good reason
    To send a child off to war
    So what if we're controllin' all the oil,
    Is it worth a child dying for? (is it worth it?)
    If long life is what we all live for
    Then long life will come to pass
    Anything is better than the picture of the child
    In a cloud of gas
    And you think you got it bad"

    One more card and it's twenty-two
    Unlucky for him again
    He never had respect for money it's true
    That's why he never wins
    That's why he never ever has enough
    To treat his lady right
    He just pushes her away in a huff
    And says 'Money don't matter to night'

    Money don't matter to night
    It sure didn't matter yesterday
    Just when you think you've got more than enough
    That's when it all up and flies away
    That's when you find out that you're better off
    Makin' sure your soul's alright
    'Cause money didn't matter yesterday,
    And it sure don't matter to night

    Look, here's a cool investment
    They're tellin' him he just can't lose
    So he goes off and tries to find a partner
    But all he finds are users (users)
    All he finds are snakes in ever color
    Every nationality and size
    Seems like the only thing he can do
    Is just roll his eyes, and say that

    Money don't matter to night (don't matter)
    It sure didn't matter yesterday
    Just when you think you've got more than enough
    That's when it all up and flies away
    That's when you find out that you're better off
    Makin' sure your soul's alright (soul's alright)
    'Cause money didn't matter yesterday, (don't matter)
    And it sure don't matter to night

    (ooh-wee-ooh, don't matter)
    (it don't matter to night, no)

    Hey now, maybe we can find a good reason
    To send a child off to war
    So what if we're controllin' all the oil,
    Is it worth a child dying for? (is it worth it?)
    If long life is what we all live for
    Then long life will come to pass
    Anything is better than the picture of the child
    In a cloud of gas
    And you think you got it bad

    Money don't matter to night (no, don't matter)
    It sure didn't matter yesterday (yesterday)
    Just when you think you've got more than enough
    That's when it all up and flies away (flies away, flies away)
    That's when you find out that you're better off
    Makin' sure your soul's alright (make certain that your soul's alright)
    'Cause money didn't matter yesterday,
    It sure don't matter to night

    Money don't matter to night
    It sure didn't matter yesterday (yesterday, yesterday)
    Just when you think you've got more than enough
    That's when it all up and flies away (flies away, flies away)
    That's when you find out that you're better off
    Makin' sure your soul's alright
    Money didn't matter yesterday,
    And it sure don't matter to night
