Testo Money - Geoff Tate
Testo della canzone Money (Geoff Tate), tratta dall'album I Got Potential
Hey everybody. Alright, thanks for coming. I think it's funny that my
Dad spent the last decade saving his money, being responsible
Putting it in banks and whatnot. I spent mine on cigarettes and pot
And we're even. Yay! I knew I had a good plan. Suck it old man
Fucking way better. He always wants to tell me, "You don't have a
Plan for your life." But then he did that. Now he can tell me about
His fucking boring corporate picnics and shit. I wanted to retire
I was planning on, as soon as I made money I was gonna save it
I was gonna put it in banks, but that seems risky now. I don't know
What to do. My new plan is this: I got a $25 gift card to Walmart
For Christmas. That's it! I'm fucking saving it. It's gift cards
Christmas, birthday, rest of my life. Stack 'em up. Until I feel like
I have enough. Take a couple weeks off right before the end. I think
It'll work. They tell us on the news that the economy is turning back
Around, but they also told us that it wasn't fucked to begin with
So who knows? But I hope it gets better before China remembers we
Have 5 trillion of their dollars. That's gonna be a weird day, cause
We're not gonna be able to pay it back. We don't need the president
Dodging phone calls like we do. I think it's MasterCard. Getting
Caller ID in the fucking Oval Office. "Is that out of area? Don't
Answer it. I'm not here." I don't need that. That's the day when
It'll fall on us as people. When China wants that money back, our
Government's not gonna be able to pay it back. We're just gonna each
Owe China like $1,000. I'm not great at math, but I'm pretty sure
That'll cover it. And they will be relentless. Calling our cell
Phones like bill collectors. Waking us up at 8 o'clock on a
Saturday morning. "You pay now. You owe $1,000. You pay now." "
Who is this?" That's gonna leave me with no options, you know what
I mean? Cause I won't be able to use my fake Asian accent. "
Jeff not here." That's how I usually get out of those situations
China's not the only one calling for my money. Verizon calls
Sometimes. And they fall for it every time. "Jeff not here, you
Call back." "Oh, when will be a good time to reach him?" China's
Not gonna fall for that shit. China be like, "No, Jeff there
You owe $1,000." "Alright. I don't have any money. You take Walmart
Gift cards? You got the stores over there or just the factories?"
That one's fun. There's a little guilt attached and a
Lot of you are like, "Yeah!" But then some of you are
Like, "Oh." Like there's a percentage of the room that
Just figured out why their flip flops are only a buck
