We Can't Eat Money Lyrics - The Parlotones

Where have all the flowers gone? 

Why have the bees tired of honey? 

Whatever happened to the whale's song? 

Do we realise now we can't eat money? 

When the last of the trees have turned to currency 

That's when the birds will all stop singing 

When will we tire of this grave we keep on digging 

And realise how we can't eat money 

Remember how we stole from the ocean 

To float in the belly of the beast 

Hear mother weep because she failed to teach 

The truth about how we can't eat money
