Money won, money won
The battle of our life
Working hard, working hard
Joker in disguise
Deck of cards, never been touched
No drinking gambling here
Find my words, hide my words
Denial of my fear
Hold her close, hold her close
Her wants will be your need
I don’t need you anymore
That’s one less mouth to feed
Standing here, standing there
In a pile of all my greed
All of this small talk
Makes the conversation deed
We don’t speak, we don’t speak
What is going on
Perfect life that we lead
Look what we’ve got
We don’t speak, we don’t speak
What is going on
Perfect life that we lead
Look what we’ve got
Hills, rivers, valleys
Will never keep me free
Trees, heather, mountains
Mean nothing to me
Summer, autumn, winter
Always leads to shopping sprees
Guilt amongst the landscape
I’m sure you would agree
Wait until the finance
Comes flying home from sea
I’ll go and meet them shortly
When you’re driving on the tee
Reason one to live my life
Shame that it’s not you
Your old, I’m young
Your empires done,
It’s time to start a coup
We don’t speak, we don’t speak
What is going on
Perfect life that we lead
Look what we’ve got
We don’t speak, we don’t speak
What is going on
Perfect life that we lead
Look what we’ve got
Oil ideas are hard to lose
Whilst play and lies and understood
Respect is gone, i am done
No need for fatherhood
Oil ideas are hard to lose
Whilst play and lies and understood
Respect is gone, i am done
No need for fatherhood
We don’t speak, we don’t speak
What is going on
Perfect life that we lead
Look what we’ve got
We don’t speak, we don’t speak
What is going on
Perfect life that we lead
Look what we’ve got
