Texty: Darren Smith And Terrance Zdunich. Repo! The Genetic Opera. Gold.

Flesh is weak
Blood is cheap
Inconsistent, consistantly
Use your Sense
Save your cents
The only thing with persistance is
Gold, it makes the world go 'round
Gold, it makes the world go 'round.
Carved my niche
Rages to rich
Made a fortune and counted it
Asked for heirs
Got nightmares
Degenerates who would waste every cent of my
Gold, it makes the world go 'round
Gold, it makes the world go 'round
But, before I go
My kids will know
About the man they have crossed
As Marni did
The day she fled
And became Nathan's wife
She forced my hand
He dug her grave
I will not be betrayed!
Empty the trash
Of all of them
And leave it all to the kid
Lay the bait
Shilo's fate
But only if earned will she appreciate that
Gold, it makes the world go 'round
Gold, it makes the world go 'round
Gold!
