I lived and died then I was born again
my second life began, I tried to make it better than I did before
another try, I get another go at making it
my pedal's to the metal, and I'm tearing off my tourniquet
but I stand tall, don't do what I am told
I'm living, and contemplating, one chance to save my soul
you're kidding, the choice is easy
give it all to me, glad to see that I finally found the
Money tree, money tree
take from thee and give to me
come on down and rest with me
lay right down by the money tree
Money tree, money tree
if I die, don't bury me
take my body out to sea
send me down with the money tree
Have social status but I lost my friends
lonely in the end, could I profit, would I even benefit?
I question life and purpose, what I have, and is it worth it
nothing gained and nothing earned, as far as I can see
but I stand tall, don't do what I am told
I'm living, and contemplating, one chance to save my soul
you're kidding, the choice is easy
give it all to me, glad to see that I finally found the
Money tree, money tree
take from thee and give to me
come on down and rest with me
lay right down by the money tree
Money tree, money tree
if I die, don't bury me
take my body out to sea
send me down with the money tree
