Tom Petty - Money Becomes King слова песни

If you reach back in your memoryA little bell might ringAbout a time that once existedWhen money wasn`t kingIf you stretch your imaginationI`ll tell you all a taleAbout a time when everythingWasn`t up for saleThere was this cat named JohnnyWho loved to play and singWhen money wasn`t king.We`d all get so excitedWhen John would give a showWe`d raise the cash between usAnd down the road we`d goTo hear him play that musicIt spoke right to my soulEvery verse a diamondAnd every chorus goldThe sound was my salvationIt was only everythingBefore money became king.Well I ain`t sure how it happenedAnd I don`t know exactly whenBut everything got biggerAnd the rules began to bendAnd the TV taught the peopleHow to get their hair to shineAnd how sweet life can beIf you keep a tight behindAnd they raised the cost of livingAnd how could we have knownThey`d double the price of ticketsTo go see Johnny`s show?So we hocked all our possessionsAnd we sold a little dopeAnd went off to rock `n` roll.We arrived there earlyIn time to see rehearsalAnd John came out and lip-synchedHis new lite-beer commercialAnd as the crowd arrivedAs far as I could seeThe faces were all differentThere was no one there like meThey sat in golden circlesAnd waiters served them wineAnd talked through all the musicAnd to John paid little mindAnd way up in the nosebleedsWe watched upon the screenThey hung between the billboardsSo cheaper seats could seeJohnny, rock that golden circleAnd all those VIPsAnd that music that had freed usBecame a tired routineAnd I saw his face in close-upTryin` to give it all he hadAnd sometimes his eyes betrayed himYou could see that he was sadAnd I tried to rock on with himBut I slowly became boredCould that man on stage with everythingSomehow need some more?There was no use in pretendingNo magic left to hearAll the music gave meWas a craving for lite-beerAs I walked out of the arenaMy ears began to ringAnd money became king.
