Money Lyrics
I'm not scared of consequences
Don't believe in God
I trust this moment I am helping her
The rest of you are vultures
Where were you when our father passed away
I stayed and helped her pay her bills
She drank her pain away
She's always been so helpless
The cause of ageing's undecided
But she must be stored away
Our family's always been divided
Why cooperate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money
You're my sister
But you never came around on Christmas'
You travelled, kept great distances
Between you and your family
I've been the kind of son I always wanted for myself
My kids are flawed
Look at my ex-wives
I deserve some compensation
The cause of aging's undecided
But she must be stored away
Our family's always been divided
Why co-operate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money
The cause of aging's undecided
But she must be stored away
Our family's always been divided
Why co-operate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money
Don't believe in God
I trust this moment I am helping her
The rest of you are vultures
I stayed and helped her pay her bills
She drank her pain away
She's always been so helpless
But she must be stored away
Our family's always been divided
Why cooperate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money
But you never came around on Christmas'
You travelled, kept great distances
Between you and your family
My kids are flawed
Look at my ex-wives
I deserve some compensation
But she must be stored away
Our family's always been divided
Why co-operate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money
But she must be stored away
Our family's always been divided
Why co-operate today?
Oh you smell money, money
She reeks of money

I think this song is pretty clearly about a wealthy, dying mother of a family as her children bicker trying to gain her favor and bicker among themselves about who deserves to inherit instead of coming together as a family or actually caring about their mother. It's a sad song, and I know this kind of thing happens all the time... Maria Mena has such a gift of storytelling in her music
