[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
You got some shares, it's a capital venture
You hedge your bets with a gilt-edged bond
You're stretched out tight by the terms of debenture
The game is on
[Verse 2]
You got a fortune on paper
How it shines on the VDU!
The simple truth is that sooner or later
The market plays you
[Verse 3]
There goes the daylight!
Night comes on the city so soon
In the dance of the typical capitalists
What piper plays the tune?
[Verse 4]
Money's ideal, money's power
Money's the drive that's more than skin-deep
Hard at work through the twenty-four hours –
Oh, but money's never cheap
