I'm lookin' for ways to stay alive
Got so many bills to pay tonight
I got car insurance, life insurance
Health insurance, home insurance
I can't breathe, cause I can't sleep
Cause I can't pay, & there's no way
But I still pray cause there's gotta be
There's gotta be there's gotta be there's gotta
Gotta be a way
Dead presidents on parade
Step over here into the shade of my wallet
I need money, I got love
Comes in handy down here, Bub
Dead presidents on parade
Got bills that have gotta be paid from my pocket
Can't pay what I don't have
Dead presidents, won't you have a seat right here
Don't need to keep ya Just love to meet ya
Don't have to stay
Just say hello, & I'll send you on your way
I'm lookin' to do what You have asked
But it's been a long and grinding path
Now I teach piano, teach guitar
I teach what little I've learned so far
But it's still rough and it's so tough and it's
Not enough no it's never been enough
But I still pray cause I still pay
So I still pray but there's no way
But there's gotta be a way, there's gotta be a way
There's gotta be, gotta be, gotta be a way
Dead presidents on parade
Step over here into the shade of my wallet
I need money, I got love
Comes in handy down here, Bub
Dead presidents on parade
Got bills that have gotta be paid from my pocket
Can't pay what I don't have
Dead presidents, won't you have a seat right here
Don't need to keep ya Just love to meet ya
Don't have to stay
Just say hello, & I'll send you on your way
Love of money is the root of all evil
Lack of money is a gun that shoots people
That gun, it shot me in the ego
Made me feel a little less equal
If it's bad for me, think of the others
Starvin' children, fathers & mothers
Gotta come up with a better system
Our instincts are good, but we resist 'em
There's gotta be a way gotta be a way
Gotta be a way gotta be a way
Dead presidents on parade
Step over here into the shade of my wallet
I need money, I got love
Comes in handy down here, Bub
Dead presidents on parade
Got bills that have gotta be paid from my pocket
Can't pay what I don't have
Dead presidents, won't you have a seat right here
Don't need to keep ya Just love to meet ya
Don't have to stay
Just say hello, & I'll send you on your way
