Lyrics People Are Turning to Gold - Momus

People Are Turning to Gold

Well you won’t get to heaven in any car
But you might get to heaven staying where you are
You won’t get to heaven in a big gold Jeep
Out on Fire Island where the zombies creep
But you might get to heaven staying where you are
Stay with me you’ll be a superstar
People who love money they make me sick
Praying to the god of arithmetic
And if money is your church
One day your god is going to leave you in the lurch
People are turning to gold
People are turning to gold
Well, because Jack Smudge has stopped evolving
Doesn’t mean this world must stop revolving, oh no
We’ve got to fix the planet for
There’s simply nowhere else for us to go, oh woah
People are turning to gold
You might get to heaven staying where you are
Stay with me you’ll be a superstar
