Reckoner
You can't take it with yer
Dancing for your pleasure
You are not to blame for
Bittersweet distractors
Dare not speak its name
Dedicated to all human beings
Because we separate
Like ripples on a blank shore
(In rainbows)
Because we separate
Like ripples on a blank shore
Reckoner
Take me with yer
Dedicated to all human beings
You can't take it with yer
Dancing for your pleasure
You are not to blame for
Bittersweet distractors
Dare not speak its name
Dedicated to all human beings
Because we separate
Like ripples on a blank shore
(In rainbows)
Because we separate
Like ripples on a blank shore
Reckoner
Take me with yer
Dedicated to all human beings

I think that this song is about trading on the stock marker, and how people who do that don't do anything useful in the world but make millions of dollars. for example: "reckoner", as in, someone who reckons, like on the stock marker
"you can't take it with you", in reference to the money they make.
"We separate like ripples on a blank shore", we separate like waves into the poor and the rich, even though there is really no difference between us.
