lyrics

I Deceive you, I swindle you, and I don't feel guilty at all,
Every day of the week, I cheat you with total impunity.

What did you expect from me, when you know I'm the bad guy,
What kind of people did you think we are, to handle so much money,

My money will buy your time, my money will teach you fast,
That amazing piece of paper is my real and truly love.

Now that you realize that, yes, I'm a banker,
With a pretty brand new building that I own, which we call a bank,

My money will make you cry, my money will make me laugh,
That amazing piece of paper is my real and truly love,
And it's all mine.

You know well how it goes, someone pays you for your work,
And I keep safely all that money, in my high security bank,

My money can make you kill, my money can make you die,
That amazing piece of paper is my real and truly love,

But if you need some more, I lend some out of thin air,
But as I really don't trust you, that's why you'll return me some little more,

My money will guide your live, my money will make me glad,
That amazing piece of paper is my real and truly love,
And it's all mine.

I control you, I oppress you, till the day you'll die,
I remain you in my hands, you belong to me till you pay your debt.
