[Verse 1]

When I last tasted money there was cocaine stuck in my throat

I gloat, but note how my notes can afford it

Audit my bank account and count the mountain I cashed in

Money is my passion, j'adore it

Ball pit of pearls in my basement

Pills take a puncture out my payslip

A soma like enhancement

The function of a face lift

Smile side pinned for the dance hunt

Faces erased and abandoned


[Verse 2]

A head of hedonism isn't how to behave

But hey, I better bite the apple 'fore I fall in the grave

I ain't a slave to the mundane sanity show

I prefer a little opulence to sharpen my glow

Can you pardon my flow?

I know the harder I go

Into the pit of arrogance becomes unbearable

Still

Bleeding red, crepuscular, the darkening evening

My budding blood will cultivate the Garden of Eden

Don't you hate me succeeding?

See my teeth got a hold

And so I suckle on the earth until my knuckles unfold

From their tight grip of the soil

I bite my lip as the nutrients boil

I'll milk the cow till gold comes out

I'll turn it solid

Burn my wallet

Take the land with warranty

I'll make a home on forest floor

It's horrid down this corridor

I reach the end still wanting more

Sing it Troubador


[Hook]

House made of solid gold

Each brick a soldier of their own

House made of solid gold

Each brick a soldier of their own

House made of solid gold

Each brick a soldier of their own

I sold the yellow road to Oz

Just because


[Verse 3]

Nothing short of monarch like

I'd like the Mona Lisa's head upon a spike

Next to a personal flag that changes colour by the weather

When apocalyptic ash falls it calls upon my silver aura

Sparks as the war breaks out below me

A plethora of morality, I stole it from a crony

A crayola paints my vanity, the people weep "Anomie!"

In a grey looking city, full of pity, my committee

Said their sympathy is phony, so no need, to go plead

With god for redemption for my avarice sins

I love love love the taste of gluttony

It's just so buttery

A to Z ain't enough for me

Hate to see me A to Z ain't enough for me


[Verse 4]

Hate to be a worker bee working hard for nothing

Deny my desires and the bumble will sting

Call me Rumpelstiltskin

Hate to live in a humble building, need the numbers filled in

Need Gems woven around me, hems golden like honey

No sub Idyllic visuals

Sybaritic mind instils

Sweat glands glimmer crystals

Sinner-minner-minner-minner-minnner-minerals

Dipped and dripping, draped, in diamonds

Under diamonds, under diamonds, I like the wide ones

Small ones, mediums, are they premiums?

I'm in delirium, I feel it running through my epithelium

And I've begun to sink and disappear like a chameleon

A million, a myriad of mirrors, man I've really won

Ascended up the pyramid; commendation

But Maslow has low expectations

Coz now i'm at the top; Elysium

I can see that I clearly ain't done


[Hook]

Just because
