There is no difference<\/span><\/p>\n

Between you and your money<\/span><\/p>\n

Your face is like a bank<\/span><\/p>\n

Note that you never smile<\/span><\/p>\n

On there, in god we trust<\/span><\/p>\n

But where is the church<\/span><\/p>\n

In the stock<\/span><\/p>\n

Market me now<\/span><\/p>\n

To buy me love<\/span><\/p>\n

And believe in yesterday<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t beat me twice<\/span><\/p>\n

Or I call my mum<\/span><\/p>\n

And she will tell you off<\/span><\/p>\n

Off the beaten track<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no difference<\/span><\/p>\n

Between you and a monkey<\/span><\/p>\n

Monkey business<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019re high<\/span><\/p>\n

On your tracks<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019re flat on<\/span><\/p>\n

Your feet<\/span><\/p>\n

Go down the aisle<\/span><\/p>\n

Search for favorite cream<\/span><\/p>\n

The new ham<\/span><\/p>\n

And the crafty sauce<\/span><\/p>\n

Your mum loves<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no difference<\/span><\/p>\n

Between a till and you<\/span><\/p>\n

You both count on no one<\/span><\/p>\n

But your wallet<\/span><\/p>\n

To count your money<\/span><\/p>\n

In change and notes<\/span><\/p>\n

Nothing in your journal<\/span><\/p>\n

About the death of<\/span><\/p>\n

Your dad<\/span><\/p>\n

Only numbers<\/span><\/p>\n

And greed<\/span><\/p>\n

Only fluffers<\/span><\/p>\n

And deeds<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no difference<\/span><\/p>\n

Between you and your account<\/span><\/p>\n

No balance to balance<\/span><\/p>\n

Your life and your wallet<\/span><\/p>\n

Which is the heaviest<\/span><\/p>\n

You don\u2019t know<\/span><\/p>\n

And don\u2019t even consider<\/span><\/p>\n

That thing to be true<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no difference<\/span><\/p>\n

You look honest<\/span><\/p>\n

But it\u2019s only a look<\/span><\/p>\n

And you don\u2019t look<\/span><\/p>\n

At what is not seen<\/span><\/p>\n

What a mistake<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no difference<\/span><\/p>\n

Between a clown<\/span><\/p>\n

In a circus<\/span><\/p>\n

And you<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh yes there is one<\/span><\/p>\n

He is smiling<\/span><\/p>\n

And people laugh<\/span><\/p>\n

At least<\/span><\/p>\n
