Money Shouldn't Talk That Strong
(Music and Lyrics by Laurel Thomsen)

Just bubbles in a bathtub
the poison was seeping to the bone
alone
In time the sages warn, no sign of a savior
we mourn
oh no
When selling off our decency ain't a crime
sends empathy cowering to the corners of our minds
and nature sends an SOS
what could be wrong?
Money shouldn't talk that strong

(Chorus)
Let's talk strong about our dreams
celebrate our differences
Talk strong about the future
Love our planet home
Find honestly in our struggles
courage in our strengths
Let's talk until our sameness shines through
like we're supposed to do.

People without hope live their lives by their fears
And evil seems to grow in all the neighbors we're afraid to know
Scarcity echoes through our minds
Divided up
we're lost of any voice that we could find
our puzzle pieces scatter
where do we all belong?
Money shouldn't talk that strong.

(Chorus)

When Bob and Phil and Joni wrote their songs oh so long ago
Did they see a future time living the same stories they sang to you?
Know the world still carried by the poor
Color, race, religions just steps from prisons door
Let's catch this moment
start a new song
because money shouldn't talk this strong.

(Chorus)
