love like money

There's a mean old man who worships papyrus Writes fancy words on the back of his eyelids They never reach his heart Cuz he wouldn't like it If he really stopped to read what they said And he's really pretty smart But he's not a fan of Mercy or grace Or love that expands to Hurting or broken people Who couldn't earn it Sometimes I wonder if he gets tired Of all that working Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny, no Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny There's a scared little kid He'll never measure up So acutely aware that he doesn't know enough And he really tries his best But he'll never do or say the right stuff, all the time But he doesn't have to anyway he's missing the point He thought that love was something You could get for work like a coin But he was born just as beautiful as he could ever be Sometimes I laugh cuz he reminds Myself of me Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny, no Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny, no Something you can't earn or lose Oh you're worth it being you Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny, no Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny, no Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny, no Oh you can't earn love like money Ain't that funny Ain't that funny Ain't that funny
