Money can't buy you happiness, but does make the misery a damn sight easier to handle :)
lyrics
There's this thing called money, it makes the world go round
You have to work, you have to graft to earn an honest pound
It can be hard to come by and it doesn't grow on trees
And one way or another it can bring you to your knees
Money can't make you happy, but it makes the misery
And despair, less hard to bear.
Money can't make you happy, it can't bring you peace of mind
Money can't bring you love.
Bap bap bap bap badap ba. Woah ho ho ho
There's this thing called alcohol, it makes the world seem fine
Whisky, gin and vodka, rum; cider, beer and wine
It can drown your sorrows, take away your power to think
Everyone should believe in something. I believe I'll have another drink
Booze can't make you happy, but it makes the misery
And despair, less hard to bear
Booze can't make you happy, it can't bring you peace of mind
Booze can't bring you love
There's this thing called music, it makes the world a better place
Some lyrics and a happy tune can put a smile upon a face
It's what your feelings sound like. It's appeal has never ceased
If music be the food of love, I say let's have a feast
Music could make you happy, take away the misery
And despair, that was hard to bear
Music could make you happy, it could bring you piece of mind
Music could bring you love
Money and booze are all very well
A short sharp fix on the road to hell
But I'll propose this simple melody
Music could make you happy, take away the misery
And despair, that was hard to bear
Music could make you happy, it can even bring you love
Music could bring you love

Great album. Almost a blend of Old Style and New Style Gaz. Delighted to have seen him perform two of the tracks live at Glastonbury. His performance was better than ever, and the songs are right up there with his best. matsan66

Gaz, having finally got this in the CD player, what an absolute stunner of an album, a glorious document of the hardest year in history, emotions, tears, mass singalongs, “The Old Normal”, one of my absolute key songs of last year and, topping them all, “Rule”, Gaz does full tilt screaming metal and it’s f’ing glorious!
