I hear them scream at me, I don't understand

Can't play their game too well

I'm a simple man

I don't need much you see

Every day I lay above the ground

I can be what I want to be

Everybody's scheming

No one is dreaming

Feels like we're going down

Nobody's feeling

And everybody's dealing

Almighty dollar wears the crown

Don't tell me no more lies

I think this world's ready for a new

race of heroes

Cause it won't take just me

A little here, a little there

Don't try and tell me that you just don't care

Try to do what can't be done

Everybody's scheming

No one is dreaming

Feels like we're going down

Nobody's feeling

And everybody's dealing

Almighty dollar wears the crown

Don't tell me no more lies

Watch the children play

They teach a simple way

Money, marbles and chalk

I heard the old man say
