Verse 1
Bm                                                   F#                   Bm
The sun’s gotta shine , And the earth’s gotta roll
Bm                                                  E                         F#
There’s music in my blood but maggots in my soul                
Bm                                            G                      F#
What is the reason for my never ending toll?  (toll = strain)
Bm
No one knows, No One cares, 
     D               A            Bm
So go to the bottom line
     D               A            Bm
So go to the bottom line
 
Banks and the corporates take us for a ride
The government and industries are standing by their side
Where is the justice when we crumble and subside?
No one knows, No One cares, 
So go to the bottom line
So go to the bottom line
 D                                                 F#
Greed and survival are what separates our lives
G                                        E
No one expects to be stabbed with hidden knives
G                                               D
Deceit and corruption are rewarded with the prize 
              F#
What’s going on, what’s going on, what’s going on


Bm
We look out for our young and care for our old
It’s a modern social society, but are we being sold
The profit seeking individuals are not in the same mould
No one knows, No One cares, 
So go to the bottom line
So go to the bottom line






Greed and survival are what separates our lives
No one expected to be stabbed with hidden knives
Deceit and corruption are rewarded with the prize 
What’s going on, what’s going on, what’s going on

 Solo Verse

Well the sun’s got to shine , And the earth’s got to roll
The music is playing loud,  but it ain’nt got soul
Greed is the only thing that matters in this world
No one knows, No One cares, 
So go to the bottom line
So go to the bottom line
So go to the bottom line
