D
If you got the money, honey, we got the bombs.
G
We’ll plant ‘em anywhere, you like and blow up anyone;
A
Whip this world into a frenzy, killin' babies, dads and moms.
D
If you got the money, honey, we got the bombs.
If you got the money, well, we won’t say we did
The towers in New York City, the subway in Madrid,
That little job in London: blame it all on Muslim kids!
If you got the money, we can fake the evidence.
If you got the money, now you control the press.
Just dictate reality and they will do the rest.
Watch those pretty talkin' heads, B.S. on CBS,
ABC and NBC, FOX News and CNN!
If you got the money, well, you can start some fights;
Divide and conquer everyone, who won’t stand by your side.
Dumb down all the children, disinform and lie,
Until they’re just too blind to see ya stealin’ all their rights.
Go to E
E
Well there’s no need to be thrifty, you can buy the store,
A
Give contracts out to all your friends, let them eat pork!
B7
When you run short of money, well, you can print some more.
E
With all that funny money, honey, you can buy a war!
Or 2 or 3 or 4 or more. Yes, Sir!
E
If you got the money, honey, we got the bombs.
A
We’ll plant ‘em anywhere, you like and blow up anyone;
B7
Whip this world into a frenzy, killin' babies, dads and moms,
E
If you got the money, honey, we got the bombs. I said,
B7 E–A–E–A–E–A–E – B7 – E
If you got the money, honey, we got the bombs.
