More Love For The Money Lyrics - Cyclorama - Styx

The cats were on the table 

They were waiting for their dinner 

Til the children came and shooed them all away 

Daddys at the racetrack 

Desperate just to pick one winner 

Will he ever be their hero of the day? 

Mom paid the price 

She sacrificed for nothing of value 

And why is it I buy this shit 

That nobody wants to? 

More love for the money 

Thats all Im after 

More buzz for the honey 

And a bit more laughter 

Why is that so much to ask? 

More for the money 

Baby, better get mine fast 

At the mall again 

Im feeling desperate and uncertain 

God, its got to be here somewhere, I believe 

My demographic profile knows 

Its show time, raise the curtain 

Start the comedy and let me be naive 

A circus flea from A to B 

I jump for my keeper 

In search of true enlightenment 

For ten per cent cheaper 

More love for the money 

Thats all Im after 

More buzz for the honey 

And a bit more laughter 

Why is that so much to ask? 

More for the money 

Price had better come down fast, yeah 

There's a place beyond these shadows 

Of this dreary road I tread 

Then for me thats all that matters 

Just the promise of arriving 

Maybe getting there before Im dead, yeah 

More love, more love for the money 

Now keep it coming 

More buzz for the honey 

Theyll all come running 

Put it right here in my hand 

More for the money 

Get me to the promised land 

More for the money 

Get me to the promised land 

Yeah, yeah, oh, oh, oh
