Stories told of how the great
Took a chance to dominate
A bullet through the heart assured
As they turned and walked away
Ideology remains
Can’t sister morphine dance no more
But I know
They’re laying down their lives on a mirror
Gotta know, got to know
Just how long
They’ll hang on
The rich don’t rock
Rich don’t rock
Oh, my generations got a critical case of going
No place
Cause I’m sick of the future being carried away
Packed in a briefcase
Might say burned or faded away
Cause I won’t wait another day
The rich don’t rock
Rich don’t rock
