Lyrics

They say that money rules the world

Money is perceived to have significant influence and control over the world.

Please excuse me but I must agree

The speaker agrees with the notion that money holds power and influence.

It has the power, makes the planet turn

Money has the ability to shape and drive the functioning of the planet.

It could set your life free, yeah

Money can bring freedom to one's life.

I hate to give you the bad news

The speaker is about to deliver unwelcome news.

The clock is tickin' away

Time is passing quickly, emphasizing urgency.

And she's your own mother nature

Nature is personified as a maternal figure.

Pays at the end of the day!

Nature demands payment or consequences at the end of the day.

Can you accept that your time is up?

Acknowledging that time is running out for some action.

We've gotta stop it while we can!!!

An urgent call to take action and stop the negative impact.

We're livin' in a mad world

Describing the current world as chaotic and irrational.

And that's the bloody truth

Asserting that this chaotic world is the harsh reality.

We're livin' in a bad world

Reiterating that the world is not in a good state.

Good luck to me and you

Expressing good wishes and luck to everyone in this challenging world.

Lost in a dream of virtual reality

Being absorbed in a dreamlike state influenced by virtual reality.

A battle-film and some booze

Engaging in escapist activities like watching a battle film and drinking.

Ain't got no time for ecology (what's that?)

Disregarding concerns for the environment, questioning its significance.

Like we've got nothing to lose, yeah

Acting recklessly as if there are no consequences.

We all can profit from a healthy planet

Highlighting the potential benefits of a healthy planet for everyone.

But greed and power seem to rule!!!

Noting the prevalence of greed and power over responsible stewardship.

Set it free, set it free!

An exhortation to release and preserve nature.

Forget your nature and she'll forget you

A warning that neglecting nature will lead to its neglect in return.

Take it away boys

An interjection signaling a transition or emphasis.

Good luck everybody...

Conveying best wishes to everyone facing the challenges mentioned.

Sleep tight, tonite!

Wishing peaceful sleep to all in the face of uncertainties.
