Money Doesn't Talk

ALl due credit to Mr. Bob Dylan ...

It's the root of all evil.

You control it.

It controls you.

Use it.

Throw it away.

Does your bidding.

Hide behind it.

Counterfeit it.

Cross-dress it.

Tell it whatever you like, it will echo the same.

Starts out whispering sweet nothings.

Tempting and seducing.

Promising whims and desires.

Eventually turning tables and owning you.

Catering with a barbarous buffet.

A sadistic spread.

Money doesn't talk ...

... it screams and swears ...
