Money Talks Lyrics - Rapture Of The Deep - Deep Purple

I was young and healthy 

Extremely wealthy 

I swung in the trees 

And did as I pleased 

I thought I was rich 

Oh yeah 

Such sweet seduction 

I could feel the suction 

Greasing my palm 

And doing no harm 

Just making some deals 

What a bitch 

Money talks to me 

Whispers in my ear 

Gives me everything I want 

Everything I want

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

I had rising stock 

So I got more pockets 

I knew somewhere to stick it 

Where no-one would nick it 

I kinda went private 

And then, aha 

Such sweet seclusion 

No more intrusion 

Too much food on my plate 

But there's guards at the gate 

Such joy 

I could almost die of it 

Money talks to me 

Lays it on the line 

Gives me everything I want 

Everything I want 

Money goes to money 

Yes it always returns 

Finds its way back to the big house 

Where it lives all alone 

Wraithlike silent partners 

Operators of the system 

Give words of quiet assurance 

To an otherwise healthy victim 

It's all coming back to me 

I would swing in the trees 

And I'd swim in the ocean 

I used to show some emotion 

I was not to blame 

I feel no shame 

The structure was shaking 

Was there for the taking 

I had the resources 

But then, oh no 

Someone outbid me 

I can't take it with me? 

Then I will devour it 

I can't go without it 

It's simply a question of 

Market forces 

Money talks to me 

Whispers in my ear 

Gives me everything I want 

Everything I want 

Money talks to me 

Laughs right in my face 

Gives me everything I want 

Everything I want
