Lyrics
0:14They wanna get something
0:17They wanna get something
0:19They wanna get something
0:22Something for nothing
0:25Something
0:26They wanna get something
0:28They're trying to get something
0:32Something for nothing
0:35Easy come easy go
0:39What I'm trying to tell you is worth
0:42It's weight in gold
0:44Sometimes it's hard to know who you can trust
0:48They call you brother and leave you in the dust
0:53It takes all kinds of people to
0:55Make this world go round
0:58And everybody know it's time for you now now
1:03I'm trying to tell you I'm know it all too well
1:07They don't care about you or me
1:09They only have all to tell
1:11They wanna get something
1:13They wanna get something
1:16They wanna get something
1:19Something for nothing
1:21Something
1:23They wanna get something
1:25They're trying to get something
1:28Something for nothing
1:39Something for nothing
1:41Honest work for honest pay
1:46Sometimes I wonder does it ever work that way
1:50Down and up of what they can get
1:55Making a living off of other people's sweat
1:59It takes all kinds of people to make
2:02This world go 'round
2:04And everybody know it's time before you now now
2:09I'm trying to tell you make no mistake
2:13They don't care about you or me always on the take
2:18They wanna get something
2:20They wanna get something

2:54They're always out to get
2:55Something for nothing

3:05They're only out for what they can get
3:08Once you got the cash they got no regrets
3:10They sell drugs to the poor arms for war
3:13They don't care here's the score
3:15They build nuclear plants and cracks in the wall
3:17And they get so sucker to take the pot
3:20It's all the same the power game
3:22This is greed my friend by any other name
3:24It takes all kinds of people to make the world go 'round
