美國實力歌手［辛蒂羅波］──硬式搖滾／後龐克──［Money Changes Everything／金錢改變一切］

She said, Im sorry, baby, Im leaving you tonight
I found someone new, hes waitin in the car outside
Ah honey, how could you do it
We swore each other everlasting love
She said, well yeah, I know, but when we did
There was one thing we werent really thinking of and thats money

Money changes everything
I said money, money changes everything
We think we know what were doin
That dont mean a thing
Its all in the past now
Money changes everything

They shake your hand and they smile
And they buy you a drink
They say, well be your friends
Well stick with you till the end
Ah, but everybodys only looking out for themselves
And you say, well, who can you trust
Ill tell you, its just nobody elses money

Money changes everything
I said money, money changes everything
Ya think ya know what ya doin
We dont hold the strings
Its all in the past now
Money changes everything

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Money, Money changes everything
I said money, money changes everything
We think we know what were doing
We dont know a thing
Its all in the past now
Money changes everything

Hey, yeah, yeah
Money changes everything
Money changes everything now
Money changes everything
Money changes everything
Money changes everything
Money

《告示牌》雜誌將這首歌描述為“硬搖滾與殘酷現實的碰撞”。
