Not Me

They say the world is on edge
 And the time of end has come
 Gather up your riches, children
 We'll send them to the place in the sky
 But then, everywhere I turn
 Somebody's getting paid and it's not me
 Well, it's a new world order
 And democracy must reign
 Sell it to all the masses
 And tell them it's the only way
 But then, everywhere I turn
 Somebody's getting paid and it's not me
 They say the world is on edge
 And demand is more than supply
 Try capitalism or socialism
 Bottle-ism or whatever you like
 But then, everywhere I turn
 Somebody's getting paid and it's not me
 So, it's time for your schooling
 You must put away old wisdom
 Leave your brains behind too
 We'll be riding on a chariot of dreams
 But then, everywhere I turn
 Somebody's getting paid and it's not me

 Hey, hey-ah

 They say the world is on edge
 But we've all never been closer
 With the internet, everything is here
 And we know all your little secrets
 But then, everywhere I turn
 Somebody's getting paid and it's not me
 Is it you, big man on a bass guitar?
 Or you, brother on the keyboard?
 Is it you, my man on the trumpet?
 You play it nice, hmm
 You play it sweet
 You play it for the whole world to know
 But then, everywhere I turn
 Somebody's getting paid and it's not us
