[Verse 1] Hey yo, money makes the world go 'round, we know that Is it gonna change your life if you own that? Is it gonna have you high in the sky where you're so glad Will it just define what you're known as? While I'm wishing that I had a mint I'd share it round if I had some riches See with money though yo it can't bring us happiness But it will bring the things we'd be happy with. Indeed While the homeless are beggin' for some change There are some who are beggin' for a change You disagree, start beggin' for a change We need change but everything's the same I can't be another one runnin' in a rat race Livin' in a life where it's all about the cash mate So forgive me, I'm a go and practice me Cause I feel like that's for me so... [Hook: Josh Pyke] I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back So I throw it, throw it all away I'll throw it, throw it all away [Verse 2] Yo meet generation yes, we party so much Got our folks worried that our hearts will blow up It's funny that we can't say no but I hope we don't hit it too hard and go nuts Yo we will know in time, man this sh** that k**s us Is why we all feel so alive And get paid on Friday from workin' all week then Forget it all by blowin' it on the weekend
And some will say 60 is a fool The kids a beginner because he didn't finish school Yo it wasn't for me mate Workin' in the office on weekdays is not what I'll be mate It ain't cause I'm broke that I'm wantin' to seek change I'm a treat this like my job and I'll see pay So forgive me, maybe it's my lack of sleep But I feel like I have to dream so... [Hook: Josh Pyke] I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back So I throw it, throw it all away I'll throw it, throw it all away [Bridge] Hey yo I can't be one of them dudes no more I ain't gonna be wearin' them shoes no more Won't waste time all for the loot no more With no idea what I can use it for Yeah, yo I don't wanna work till I'm fifty And then spent what I've earn't till I'm sixty So forgive me, I know it's got a hold on me But no way is it controllin' me no [Hook: Josh Pyke] I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back So I throw it, throw it all away I'll throw it, throw it all away I know that it goes on but we don't wanna know that I know that I've been wrong but I don't wanna go back So I throw it, throw it all away I'll throw it, throw it all away
