Lyrics
FIRST VERSE
Traded stardust for gold dust
On the road to Kingdom Come
In whom do you trust?
?Cause God knows what you?ve done
Think you hold a king?s ransom
You think you?re prince of thieves
Better wake up, little jester
?Cause you ain?t fooling me
CHORUS
So save it up, mark it down
Let?s see what?s in your account
Your treasure is a curse upon the land
So take it in, churn it out
If it makes the world go round
But it?s time that?s flowing
Through your dirty hands
SECOND VERSE
On ?The Street? you hear voices
And Hades haunts your sleep
You?ve made selfish choices
Now your debt is way too deep
But your payment is worthless
And your credit is no good
You can offer up your money
But they?re coming for your blood
CHORUS
So save it up, mark it down
Let?s see what?s in your account
Your treasure is a curse upon the land
So take it in, churn it out
If it makes the world go round
But it?s time that?s flowing
Through your dirty hands
It?s time that?s flowing
Through your dirty hands
THIRD VERSE
Traded stardust for gold dust
On the road to Kingdom Come
Now the new wheels are old rust
And you?re looking for the sun
But you?re finding nothing
And you?re hungry and worn down
And your hands are itchy
But there?s nothing left to count
CHORUS
So save it up, mark it down
Let?s see what?s in your account
Your treasure is a curse upon the land
So take it in, churn it out
If it makes the world go round
But it?s time that?s flowing
Through your dirty hands
It?s time that?s flowing
Through your dirty hands
It?s time that?s flowing
Through your dirty hands
