Money Video (MV)

Money is the root of all evils, brother
Money is the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money, money, money, money everywhere
Money is the root of all evils
M-O-N-E-Y, money
M says, many shall die for my sake
O says, on me shall people depend
N says, none shall be happy without me
E says, everyone has need of me
Y says, yet I am root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money, money, money, money everywhere
Money is the root of all evils
Brother, tell me what is money as you know
Money is the root of all evils
Money, money, money, there is magic in the name
It is powerful, it is wonderful
Money can save, but it can also kill
It can be a good servant, it is often a bad master
Indeed, money is not bad in itself
After all, here in Nigeria
Without money, you are Mr. Nobody
Your words have no weight
Friends and brothers desert you
But once you have money
Your friends and brothers multiply
Women and even men will adore you
And because money can perform so much wonder
Provide so much comfort
People now worship money
And so the love for money
The lust for money
Has become the bane of our society
Money, money, and more money
Yes, that is the cry everywhere
People want more money by hook and by crook
Hence the increase in crime in our society
Friends now kill friends to make money
Wives betray their husbands for money
And even some men sell their children for money
M says, many shall die for my sake
O says, on me shall people depend
N says, none shall be happy without me
E says, everyone has need of me
Y says, yet I'm the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money, money, money, money everywhere
Money is the root of all evils
If man leave house by 5am
And come back by 11pm
Wetin dey cause am o na money matter
Money is the power
Recording company drags their artist to court
Na money matter o
Money says don't plan anything without his presence o
Brother, it's the power
Money is the root of all evils, brother
Money is the root of all evils
Money matter, money matter everywhere
Money is the root of all evils
Brother, tell me what is money as you know
Money is the root of all evils
Money has turned our society upside down
Even some of our holy places of prayers
Have become commercial or business houses
Where money and not God is openly worshipped
But must this madness continue
There must be a stop
Otherwise we are doomed forever
Why should drug pushers, armed robbers
And those who embezzle our government funds
Be rewarded with chieftaincy titles
Some illiterates with university degrees
Have been made to sit in front rows
Inside our churches or holy places
Why, why, oh why
No, this is too much
The madness must stop, but how
Let's come back to our senses
And stop the worship of money in our society
Let's begin to question and condemn
All dubious methods of making money in our society
Let's realize that money is not everything
That money cannot buy happiness or peace of mind
And that the day a man dies
All the money in this world cannot save him
So brothers and sisters, fellow Nigerians
Let's return to our old values
The values of good name and the fear of God
The values of honesty and probity
Of friendship and generosity
Of kindness, peace and love
These are the old values we need
In building a new Nigeria
M says, many shall die for my sake
O says, on me shall people depend
N says, none shall be happy without me
E says, everyone has need of me
Y says, yet I'm the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money matter, money matter everyday
Money is the root of all evils
If you see hired assassin
Kill one man somewhere
Na money matter ho
Money is the root of all evils, brother
Money is the root of all evils
Money is the root of all evils
Money matter.
