about

A song about capitalism

lyrics

Have you heard of the system of gold?
Where the rich stay rich and keep the power they hold
It's all, Its all ….In the system of gold

I'm sure you've heard of the system of gold,
where the poor they die of hunger and cold
Its all, It's all…....In the system of gold

We all help the system of gold
Buying things we don't need, just because they are sold
Its all, It's all…....In the system of gold

Break down the doors, - change the system of gold
Break down the doors, - change the system of gold
…......The system of gold

If you're born rich in the system of gold
money and jobs just seem to unfold
Its all Its all in the system of gold

You know the banks love the system to gold
they sold us debt so we're just slaves of old
Its all, its all, in the system of gold

Break down the doors, - change the system of gold
Break down the doors, - change the system of gold
…......The system of gold

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
We'll change the system of gold


Trapped inside the system of gold
Just shut up and do as you're told
Its all in, its all in The system of gold

We could leave this system of gold
learn to share and learn to behold
the world, this old world ….instead of gold
