President, President, I don't think you realize what's going on here.
I can't feed my family.
I got no job, Mr.
President.
I got laid off.
My wife, she tried to help out a little bit, but guess what?
She got laid off too.
Mr.
President, what am I supposed to do?
Where are the jobs?
Economic recovery?
Yeah, right.
What happened?

[Cm]
[C#] [D#m]
[C#] Hold it, hold it, [Cm] hold it.
That's all we have.
[G#] It's not funny.
[D#m]
Nothing's funny about [C#] Stalin.
[G#] You better get him before [D#] I do.
[Cm] One more [C#] cut and it's 22.
[D#m] Unlucky for [C#] him again.
[D#] Never had respect [Fm] for money, it's true.
[D#m] That's why he [C#] never wins.
[Fm] [Cm] That's why he never ever [C#] has enough to [D#m]
treat his lady [C#] right.
[Fm] [Cm]
He just [Fm] pushes her away in a huff and says [D#m]
money don't [C#] matter tonight.
Money don't matter.
[Cm]
Money don't matter [Fm] tonight.
[D#m]
Sure it [C#] mattered yesterday.
[Fm] [Cm] Just when you [Gm] think you've [Fm] got more than enough, [D#m] it's when it all up [C#] and flies [G#] away.
[Cm]
That's when you find out [Fm] that you're better off [G#] making [D#m] sure your soul's all [Fm] right.
[Cm] Cause money didn't matter [G#] yesterday, [D#m] and it sure don't matter [C#] tonight.
[Cm]
Look, here's [C#] a cool investment.
[D#m] They're telling him he just [C#] can't lose.
[Cm] So he goes out and [C#] tries to find a partner, [D#m] but all he [C#] finds are users.
[Cm]
All he finds [C#] are snakes in every color, [D#m] every nationality, [C#] and size.
[Cm]
Seems like the only [C#] thing that he can do is [D#m] just roll his [C#] eyes.
And say [Fm] [Gm] that money don't [Fm] matter tonight.
Don't matter.
[D#m]
Sure didn't [C#] matter yesterday.

[Cm]
Last night I was dreaming [C#] that today for dinner [D#m] we would have fried [C#] chicken and corn [Cm] with a mashed potato.
Well, it doesn't [C#] seem to deserve this, but [D#m]
I guess we will have to [C#] keep on dreaming.
Till the [Cm] day comes.
Maybe [C#] we can find a good reason [D#m] to send a child off [C#] to war.
[Fm] [Cm]
So what if we're [C#] controlling all the oil?
[D#m] Is it worth a child [C#] dying for?
Is it [A#m] worth any [Cm]
long life?
But [C#] we all live for [D#m] the long life will come [C#] to pass.
[D#]
Anything is better [C#] than the picture of a child in a [D#m] cloud of gas.
[C#] And you think you got [Cm] it bad, money don't [C#] matter tonight.
[D#m] It sure didn't [C#] matter yesterday.
