Rock N Roll Mercenaries

Talking, talking - wealth, talking - money, talking - power
      Talking - horses, talking - fun, talking - self, talking -
power
      Talking - diamonds, talking - ego, talking - man, talking
- wealth
      And talking - power (repeats)
      Money is power, power is fame
      Talking about rock 'n' roll mercenaries
      Soldiers of fortune by some other name
      I'm talking about rock 'n' roll mercenaries
      Money is power, 'n' power is fame

      Everything you pay to hear - just listen
      Everything to catch your ear - just listen
      Whatever it takes, they're ready to sell
      Anything and everything they do it themselves
      Young are the victims so easily swayed (slain)
      As some given are poisoned, all continuous placed
      Our conscience is a load, so heavy to carry,
      For a rock 'n' roll mercenary

      It starts with a game, see how they play
      Till all of the laughter is faded away
      It's not for the song, it's not for the love
      It's just for the gold and there's never enough
      Never enough
      It's not for the song, it's not for the love
      It's just for the gold, there's never enough
      Rock 'n' roll mercenaries
      Talking, talking (repeats out)
      Rock 'n' roll mercenaries - ooh, talkin' about
      Rock 'n' roll mercenaries... (to fade)
