I heard the old lie again today
   That all is right when the money rains
   I saw a couple leaving a store
   Their smiles were quick then were there no more
  
   All the precious time a'wasting on porcelain and wine and fine vacations
   And all the lovers who've gone awry don't see the rainbow right before their eyes
   And to the conscience who speaks his mind I wish him luck in these troubled times
  
   And old acquaintance knocked on my door
   He said I knew him and that he knew me more
   He was quick to twist all of my thoughts
   And made me wonder what was true or not
  
   All the wanting that goes untried
   dissatisfaction and foolish pride
   With every striving plan they still can't see
   they're blinded by the quiet trap of greed
   And to the righteous wherever you are
   I wish you peace in these troubled times
  
   Maybe you have closed your eyes
   to the deceit and incessant lies
   This ignorance brings deceitful bliss
   it's to our shame we've come to this
   I can see how the world has got you down
   your feet just can't leave the ground
   Maybe in time we'll see all the good in little things
   and not focus on what we need
   The road is turning someone's got to turn it back around
  
   Rain rain go away
   Come back again some other day
   And money money pour down on me
   You bring short laughter for such a small fee
   I know you won't last long here
   Maybe time will tell
   And money will disappear
   Time is passing by
   And I don't have enough porcelain and wine
