  1. We Keep Paying

From the recording We Keep Paying

Lyrics

We pay to live; we live to pay.
We play to win; we pay to play.
We pay each night; we pay all day.
We pay for all we say.
We keep paying, paying, paying; we keep paying, paying, paying.

Billions may struggle to pay the rent.
A privileged few own the government.

I have often heard that all men have a price.
A penny for your thoughts I offered for some sad advice:
One could be a hero or a zero,
Without money I’d likely be no one.

We pay to come; we pay to go.
We pay to learn in school, although
We pay for things we do not know.
We pay and that is so.
We keep paying, paying, paying; we keep paying, paying, paying.

Pennies from heaven may rain gently
As crooked banksters are fleecing sheep.

I have often heard that all men have a price.
A penny for your thoughts I offered for some sad advice:
One could be a hero or a zero,
Without money I’d likely be no one.
A cipher, naught, null, zero, zip; no one, a cipher, naught, null, zero, zip.

I pay to eat my daily bread.
I paid for blood because I bled.
I paid a fine they said I sped.
I pay to get ahead.
We keep paying, paying, paying; we keep paying, paying, paying.

It’s quite a price the poor must pay to stay alive
Always chicken scratching for the basics to survive.

We pay when proud; we pay when meek.
We pay each day; we pay each week;
We pay each month & it repeats.
We pay for all we seek.
We keep paying, paying, paying. A cipher, naught, null, zero, zip.
