Money Makes the Cogs Go Round
A clockwork bank teller from Nomisma sings about the philosophy of his burg, much to the delight of the Fated cutters in the audience. Audible glamer by Jon Winter-Holt. With apologies to all of the singers in the Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club.

Money Makes the Cogs Go Round
Ladies and gentlefiends, modrons and inevitables,
I’d like to tell you a little story about something very close to my heart…
Money money money money!
Money money money!
Yeah that’s right!
You like money? Course you do, cutter!
Money makes the cogs go around,
The cogs go around,
The cogs go around, Â
Numismatic thought will astound!
In Mechanus we’re found.
A gem, a jinx, a mert or a green,
Ivory bits, adamantine!
Is all it takes to keep berks keen,
That lustrous, golden sheen!
It drives the great machine!
Money money money money money!
Money money money money money!
Money money money!
You see, we believe that jink is divine, Â
Your worth’s marked out by the gleam and shine, Â
You can buy your class, your name, and your might, Â
Just flash enough coin, and you’re set for life! Â
If you got enough jink you’ll reach the top, Â
If not: Back to the bottom you drop!
Money makes the cogs go around, Â
The cogs go around,
The cogs go around,
That clinking clanking sound,
It makes the gears turn round!
You know, the more you got, the more you’re right,Â
You got the gold? Your future’s bright.
You want the best? Just make it rain, Â
Jink builds you up, jink heals the pain! Â
Buy a charm, buy a spell, buy a dance, Â
If you can pay, you’ll get your chance!Â
Money money money money money!
Money money money money money!
Money money money!
