Down in the vault is the gold
Locked up ever so tight
All you've got is the key
Under your pillow at night

Red lines don't hit the headlines
Light as a hole in the pocket
The best times can be the hard times
So spend it while you've got it!

That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)

Since I can advance the equation
X+Y=Z
The answer's always inflation
The whole damn world's in the red

Whatever goes up will come down
It ain't necessarily so
Monopoly's the name of the game
Separating the gold

That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)

Red lines don't hit the headlines
Light as a hole in the pocket
The best times can be the hard times
So spend it while you've got it!

That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)

The stock market is a casino
Deutsche marks, Dollars and Yen
Where gamblers from Philly to Reno
Make fortunes again and again

The price, It's falling - Crash!
It's too low for labor and profit
It's not so much that it's trash
It's a trap, you can't get off it

That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)

That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
That's the way the money goes
(Pop go the people)
