honesty - mighty sparrow lyrics

[verse 1]
honesty is the best policy
but they weren’t referring to people like me
honesty is the best policy
but they wasn’t referring to people like me
rich people could say anything
because they living like queen and king
whenever your neighbour living in luxury
the first man to tell you to be honest is he

[chorus]
honesty is for the rich, they can all live above board
but it’s onе virtue us poor people can’t afford
tеmptation always knocking at your door
where the next meal coming from, you never sure
that is always the case when you’re poor
so necessity knows no law

[verse 2]
it’s good to be honest, i wouldn’t deny
but through dishonesty plenty people get by
to cheat and to lie is very, very wrong
but that’s the way politicians get along
the amount of lie politicians tell
when they dead all of them going straight to h*ll
before election they talking honesty
but after election they practising rachifee
[chorus]
honesty is for the rich, they can all live above board
but it’s one virtue politicians can’t afford
temptation always knocking at their door
where the next meal coming from, they never sure
that is always the case when you’re poor
’cause necessity knows no law

[verse 3]
rich people who don’t invest their money
is crippling the nation’s economy
they can assist things like good employment
by simply making a small investment
so whenever a poor man break open a shop
the government should lock a rich man up
magistrates always penalising we
but these blasted misers create dishonesty

[chorus]
honesty is for the rich, they can all live above board
but it’s one virtue us poor people can’t afford
temptation always knocking at your door
where the next meal coming from, you never sure
that is always the case when you’re poor
so necessity knows no law
[verse 4]
all honest people catching h*ll
while rich dishonest folks doing well
all rich people does be wrong and strong
but when a poor man right, he always wrong
so if a poor man want to find happiness
he got to learn to be dishonest
lie like h*ll, do some thiefing too
and when you get rich, n0body honest like you
