Equal isn't fair and fair isn't equal

Money money money that's all we ever talk about.

People who don't have enough just want to scream and shout.

Some people worked hard and can now call themselves rich.

While procrastinators now can't even afford to get a stitch.

They say money is the root of all evil, but is it true?

But if you ask if it's done more good or bad nobody's got a clue.

We could do what seem the right thing and pay everyone the same

But the rich would be outraged and would refuse to change this financial game.

If we did this we would might as well call ourselves communists.

But it wouldn't make sense having a drunk being paid as much as a scientist

Equal isn't fair and fair isn't equal we all know this fact

It will outrage somebody no matter how we try to react.
