[Hook] Funky dollar bill U.S. dollar bill [Verse 1] You go to school to learn the rules On how to love and live your life But think about it twice The pushers push, the fixers fix The judge acquits The junkie leads his life For the dollar bill [Hook] [Verse 2] You don't buy a life, you live a life A father learns much too late He was a-never home He worked two jobs, never stayed at home He had to, 'cause His love life was gone For the dollar bill For the dollar bill For the dollar bill U.S. dollar bill [Verse 3] It'll buy a war It will save a land It pollutes this air In the name of wealth It'll buy you life But not true life The kind of life Where the soul is harsh For the dollar bill [Hook]
