Verse 1
Cm
Strange times we're living in,
panic and hysteria
Poor man, learn the rich man don't care for ya
Gm
Narcissist mindsets spread like malaria
Sit back and watch the show, America
Cm
Britain split through fickle shit
A government of hypocrites
Gm
These counterfeit politicians sit in parlia ment,
not adequate (Come on)
Cm
Needlessly bleeding resources all dry
Turn a blind eye if it means a pay rise
Gm
"Oh, what a shame it would be, I would die"
If Number 10 Downing Street burned in a fire
Cm
Only joking, only messing,
don't be stressing
I'm a peaceful adolescent,
there's no need to be unpleasant
Gm
Write my thesis in a rhyme scheme
to analyze the brain
While my finger's on the trigger
of a money game
Chorus 1
Cm
Oh rain, rain, rain, rain
A storm, it comes our way
Gm
And those who rise through distorted lies
F
Poisoning the veins
But we like to point the
Cm
blame, blame, blame, blame
It's easier to blame
Gm
But point the mirror at ourselves
F

We're all part of this old money game

Verse 2
Cm
Money is a game and the ladder we climb
Turns a saint into a sinner
with his finger in crime
Gm
I'll break it down for you motherfuckers
line by line
This is business economics in
a nursery rhyme
Cm
She sells seashells on the seashore
But the value of these shells will fall
Gm
Due to the laws of supply and demand
No one wants to buy shells
'cause there's loads on the sand
Cm
Step one, you must create a sense of scarcity
Shells will sell much better
if the people think they're rare, you see
Gm
Bear with me, take as many shells
as you can find and hide 'em on an island
Stockpile 'em high high until they’re rarer
than a diamond
Cm
Step two, gotta make the people think
that they want 'em
Really want 'em, really fuckin' want 'em,
hit 'em like Bronson
Gm
Influ encers, product placement,
featured prime time entertainment
If you haven't got a shell,
then you're just a fucking waste, man
Cm
Three, it's monopoly,
invest inside some property
Start a corporation, make a logo, do it properly
Gm
"Shells must sell",
that will be your new philosophy
Swallow all your morals,
they're a poor man's quality
Cm
Four, expand, expand, expand
Clear forest, make land, fresh blood on hands
Gm
Five, why just shells? Why limit yourself?
Ab
She sells seashells, sell oil as well
Cm
Six, guns, sell stocks, sell diamonds, sell rocks
Sell water to a fish, sell the time to a clock
Gm
Seven, press on the gas,
take your foot off the brakes
Then run to be the president
of the United States
Cm
Eight, big smile, mate, big wave, that's great
Now the truth is overrated,
tell lies out the gate
Gm
Nine, polarize the people,
controversy is the game
F
It don't matter if they hate you
Bridge 1
if they all say your name
Cm
Ten, the world is yours
Step out on a stage to a round of applause
Gm
You're a liar, a cheat, a devil, a whore
F
And you sell seashells on the seashore
Chorus 2
Cm
Rain, rain, rain, rain
A storm, it comes our way
Gm
And those who rise through distorted lies
F
Poisoning the veins
But we like to point the
Cm
blame, blame, blame, blame
It's easier to blame
Gm
But point the mirror at ourselves
