The Bottom Line
Music and Lyrics by Carole and Ron Ciancioso
Verse 1
There’s no way to spin it
Now everyone’s' a cynic
And no one passed the ball
The life that we are livin'
All takin’ and no givin’
So someone has to fall
And it's only sunny
When you got lots of money
Then you're walkin' tall
You’re climbing up the ladder
You’re wallet’s getting fatter
You think you have it all
Pre-Chorus
It's all about the money
That's the bottom line
Chorus
And why I I I…
Is no one sharing the wealth? No one
It's every man for himself
Why I I I…
Do we cut to the front of the line?
It’s all about me and mine
Verse 2
Material desires
Will turn us into liars
Deceit is everywhere
The scammers got their game on
The people that they prey on
And no one seems to care
Crooked politicians
With runaway ambitions
& Greedy CEOs
They try to hide their assets
So they don’t pay their taxes
And that’s just how it goes
Pre-Chorus
It's all about the money
That's the bottom line
Chorus
And why I I I…
Is no one sharing the wealth? No one
It's every man for himself
Why I I I…
Do we cut to the front of the line?
It’s all about me and mine
Solo
Chorus out
There’s no way to spin it
The bottom line
