Текст песни Empire Now - Black Gatsby

Way back when I sold my soul
The Devil led me down them streets of gold
Chain 'round my neck and a mink fur coat
He pat me on the back
Said "Boy, do what you were told"

He said "Hide all the money you make
Off shore, no banks
You take and you take and you take
Do all your deals with handshakes
Smile on your face
Pretend you got nothing to say
Print out the money, it's fake
Corporates fake
It's fake and it's fake and it's fake
You take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take"

Bank in my pocket
My estate
Is an Empire Now
Clink-Clank
A cheers to profits
Checks blank
I'm an Empire Now

Sat in first class
Never coach
"Stay close to my fire
And you'll never be cold"
He grant me one wish
And I wish for more
Now I'm a greedy man
Yeah, I'll never be full

He said "Hide all the money you make
Off shore, no banks
You take and you take and you take
Do all your deals with handshakes
Smile on your face
Pretend you got nothing to say
Print out the money, it's fake
Corporates fake
It's fake and it's fake and it's fake
You take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take"

Bank in my pocket
My estate
Is an Empire Now
Clink-Clank
A cheers to profits
Checks blank
I'm an Empire Now

And you take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take

And I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take

And you take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take and you take

And I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take and I'll take

Bank in my pocket
My estate
Is an Empire Now
Clink-Clank
A cheers to profits
Checks blank
I'm an Empire Now

Bank in my pocket
My estate
Is an Empire Now
Clink-Clank
A cheers to profits
Checks blank
I'm an Empire Now

I'm an Empire Now
