Lyrics

If It Takes Money

( Music - K. Johnson, Lyrics - K. Johnson, M. Novak)

Hallelujah

Preachers talking at you on Sunday morning
Asking you to pay to hear his warning
He needs a small donation to save your soul
But getting a new Rolex is his only goal

Screaming hallelujah at the top of your lungs
Your belief is so strong you're speaking in tongues
Beaming with belief as they pass the plate
Every dollar you give helps determine your fate

CHORUS:

If it takes money to save your save your soul
Hallelujah
Where in the hell do the poor people go
If it takes money for your soul to be free
Hallelujah
How much money should you pay for the key

Believers equal money show them no contempt
Because their weekly fleecing is all tax exempt
No one ever questions where the money went
According to the elders it's all well spent

Swaggart and Baker didn’t practice what they preached
To them the word of god’s just a figure of speech
From the revival tent to the Chrystal Cathedral
Paying the preacher to protect you from evil


CHORUS:

Profiteering kick backs, is big Pharma's game
They take your last dollar they have no shame
Just ask your doctor it says in the add
Ten bad side effects that ain’t so bad

All made for diseases you never knew you had
But the cure will take money and the prescription pad
Wealth for health playing on your fear
If you can’t afford it go have a beer

Hallelujah

If it takes money to save your health
Where do people go if they have no wealth
If it takes money to stay alive
How can the poor people survive

If it takes money to be gratified
The finer things in life will be cast aside
I know that it may sound funny
But there’s more to life than just making money
More to life than just making money

CHORUS:

It's All About the Music!
