Money Talks Back (έκδοση 2)

Verse

Piggy bank built out of plastic and rust

Every coin that I dropped in was trust

Teller counted with a smile so wide

Never asked who's the one inside

I swept the floor where the millionaires eat

Carpets so soft they forgot their own feet

I polished the silver till it shone like glass

Never claimed a single dime, never had to ask

Pre-Chorus

Now the vault door rattles when the night turns cold

Now I hear the money counting what it's told

Chorus

Money talks back in a voice so low

Every bill that I touched starts to grow

I swept it all clean and now it won't lie

Every dollar came back alive

Verse

Some of them laughed when they watched me shine

Swept the same spot for years on my time

Never asked for overtime, never cried

Kept the change pocketed, didn't buy

Now I'm standing face to face with the gold

Vault door creaking open, story untold

Every crumb I swept found its way back home

Something in that dust was waiting to be known

Pre-Chorus

Now the vault door rattles when the night turns cold

Now I hear the money counting what it's told

Chorus

Money talks back in a voice so low

Every bill that I touched starts to grow

I swept it all clean and now it won't lie

Every dollar came back alive

Bridge

Maybe every dust speck carries a debt

Maybe I'm the one it was saving for next

I opened this box and let go of my name

Whatever's inside just called me by my name

Chorus

Money talks back in a voice so low

Every bill that I touched starts to grow

I swept it all clean and now it won't lie

Every dollar came back alive
