Money
Is good
But good health
Is the key
Not food
Not wealth.
In the cemetery
Nobody is wealthy
Everybody is poor
Go take a tour
And you'll be sorry
Because money
Brings neither longevity
Nor infinity
Share your richness
Your lavishness
You'll be blessed
And you'll find happiness
And peace
To say the least.
Money
Is vanity
Indeed a necessity
Money
Is a leitmotiv
Learn how to prosper
To live
Better
And happier
With less wealth
But with good health
First
That's the best
That's being less
Greedy
About money.
