Why must

31 3 2
                                    

A nickel beneath my foot

A dime in between my toes

Why must it surround me so

Why must money be so gold

 

Shining beneath the worlds soot

Only makes its shimmer grow

Why must my greed win

Why must I lose to sin

 

Cost me my worth

My life is valued less than a loonie

Why must people be so cruel

Why must it be true

 

Less and less I have

But I am still living

Why must life be money

Why must money be this cunning
