Yeah
God shinin' the light
He just turned on the spotlight
Yo, check it
The devil
Put you on display
Yeah

I say
I used to believe
Everything I read
& see on tv
I was way down for the revolution
Until I found out
It was contingent upon some
Corporate sponsorship
And if Jesus was alive today
He'd be incarcerated
With the rest of the brothers
While uh
The devil would have a great apartment
On the upper east side
Be a guest v.j.
On total request live

God, fear and money
Make the world go 'round and 'round
God, fear and money
I say god, fear and money
Make the world go 'round and 'round
God, fear and money
Yes you do, Lord

I say Mary don't you weep
Mary don't you moan
Lord have mercy
Come carry me home
And my brother up in heaven
Hallow by thy name
And if you truly are the Shepherd
Why do they want, destroy
Slaughter all in your name?
Tell me

God, fear and money
Make the world go 'round and 'round
God, fear and money
Yes you do
God, fear and money
Make the world go 'round and 'round
God, fear and money

God, fear and money
Make the world go 'round and 'round
God, fear and money

Walk the walk
If you gonna talk that talk
Politicians...
God, fear and money

The devil's work is never done
God
The devil's work is never done
The devil's work is never done
God
The devil's work is never done

The devil's work is never done
Free yourself from the chains
Of envy
The devil's work is never done
Yeah
God, fear and money.
