Like falling rain in a monsoon season
Cash rains down on politicians
even more now and here’s one reason
Those fat cat donors got what they’re wishing
Money talks money yells
Aint no limit to ringing that bell
Money talks money screams
It’s a one percenter’s dream
Wealthy Corporations are free to speak
And cash seems to be their nouns and verbs
Speaking for the strong against the weak
What once was a democracy is getting absurd
Money talks money yells
Aint no limit to ringing that bell
Money talks money screams
It’s a one percenter’s dream
A lot of green can drown out the truth and make something black look white
The message is repeated and sooner or later the masses will say that’s right
So many issues like immigration
Or gun control, which a majority supports
The monied interests kill the legislation
And now the money’s even bigger thanks to the Supreme Court
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
