Styx - More Love for the Money lyrics

The cats were on the table They were waiting for their dinner ‘til the children came and shooed them all away Daddy's 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 sh** That nobody wants to More love for the money That's all I'm 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 I'm feeling desperate and uncertain God it's got to be here somewhere I believe My demographic profile Knows it's 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 That's all I'm 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 If there's a place beyond these shadows Of this dreary road I tread Then for me that's all that matters Just the promise of arriving Maybe getting there before I'm dead More love More love for the money Now keep it coming More buzz for the honey They'll 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
