Alternative Power To The People Lyrics - This Machine - Dandy Warhols

All right, here it comes 

Well, I can tell you for the money 

The simple life, honey, is good, uh huh 

Well, if you ask me how you made it? 

Secure life, baby, you should 

Oh yes, you should 

Cause if youre doing all the best that you can 

But youre still runnin just as fast as the man says 

Well, I can tell you for the money 

The simple life honey is good 

Uh huh, now yes, its good 

Now when youre movin to the city 

You worry on your mental health 

Yes, you do, now 

Oh, you gentlemen and ladies 

Youve got to be good to yourself, mm hmm 

So get yourself into a ranch style home 

When the neighbors never more than a stones throw 

Well, I can tell you for the money 

The simple life, honey, is good 

Yes, it is, yes, its good 

Thats right, yeah 

But, oh on, all the money 

Still you just cant please everybody 

How bad do, do you want it? 

Cause the money it looks so good, good, good, ohh 

Yeah, whoo, yeah 

So now youre chasin the American dream 

Just like the dollars gonna make everybody scream 

But I can tell you for the money 

The simple life sure looks good 

Thats right, now, yes, its good, oh yeah 

Oh no, all the money 

Looks so good, good, good to everybody 

How bad do, do you want it? 

Cause the money, it looks so good, good, good 

Now theres a whole lot of faking and takin 

And shakin my hand 

And when they tell you, they love ya 

They love ya like a one night stand, mm hmm 

So if youre playin in a rocknroll band 

But still youre doing whatever the man says 

Well, I can tell you for the money 

The simple life, honey, is good, thats right 

Yes, its good 

Uh huh, take care
