Lyrics to $50 Million
Nature of the things that keep me up at night
Or precisely that I can't explain them
Searching for a fair break in an unfair world
And the rules just seem to keep on changin'
Fifty thousand dollars wouldn't change my mind
But fifty million more just might
I got my convictions but I won't miss 'em
I got my conscience but I won't listen

I stand accused of all the usual stuff
My heart is true, but is it strong enough?
You know what they say, wouldn't it be nice?
Well, I guess that's true
I'll make my forty nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
I said nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
I'll make my forty nine

Form my opinions from a comfortable position
But our politics are still unproven (Oh, oh, yeah)
I don't know how I got 'em but I might as well use 'em
There's a comfort in my chosen delusions (Oh, oh, yeah)
Fifty thousand dollars wouldn't change my mind
But fifty million, now we're talking
Man, I've been tempted but not that often
If they want some of this, well, it's gonna cost 'em

I stand accused of all the usual stuff
My heart is true, but is it strong enough?
You know what they say, money has got a prize
Well, I guess that's true
And fifty million's mine
I stand accused of that which I accuse you of
But how 'bout you, how long should be enough?
You know what they say, wouldn't it be nice?
Well, I guess that's true
I'll make my forty nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
I said nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
Nine, nine, nine, nine, nine
I'll make my forty nine
