<td class="content"><font size="2">The Lord looked down and He had to frown<br />
On His great creation Earth <br />
There was drought where there used to be water <br />
There was hunger and there was thirst <br />
He said: &quot;Look at all the good things I gave you, children <br />
The land and the sky and the sea <br />
Oh, I handed you a garden of Eden <br />
And you planted a money tree <br />
You planted a money tree<br />
In my garden there's a money tree&quot; <br />
<br />
And the profits came to rule the kingdom <br />
They were slaves to their silver &amp; gold <br />
As if truth &amp; wisdom &amp; beauty <br />
Could be bought and borrowed and sold <br />
He said: &quot;Look at all the good things I gave you, children <br />
The wealth that would set you free<br />
Oh, I handed you a tree of knowledge <br />
And you planted a money tree <br />
You planted a money tree <br />
In my garden there's a money tree&quot; <br />
<br />
Well, there ain't no use you can't pick no fruit <br />
From that money tree <br />
And in the heat of the day you won't find no shade<br />
Under that money tree<br />
He said: &quot;Look at all the good things I gave you, children <br />
Everything you'd ever need <br />
But you kill and steal, <br />
You bow down and you kneel <br />
To that money tree <br />
You planted a money tree <br />
In my garden there's a money tree&quot;<br />
