Money歌词

SCENE 9:INTERIOR. CELL
BAGGOTT: Shazam! So this is where you've got to. We've all been missing you, Miss McCoy.
EMILY:Mr Baggott!
BAGGOTT:How do you like the cape?
EMILY:You look silly.
BAGGOTT: Yes, I'm not convinced. I can't fly. I can flounce a little.
But I've decided the Superman idea is unsustainable for anyone who's relatively sane.
I feel my niche is somewhere between
Kantian ‘do as you would have everybody do’.
and Hobbesian ‘do unto others before they do unto you’.
EMILY: I don't care about you.
What have they done with my friend?
BAGGOTT: Held on suspicion of witchcraft.
EMILY: He's a prisoner, too?
BAGGOTT: It's classic.
Two prisoners. They can't confer.
They're thinking. If they give evidence against each other
their lives will be spared and they'll go to prison.
If they both keep silent
they’ve got to get a main charge and get a shorter sentence
But...if one keeps silent and the other turns state's evidence...
Spot the dilemma!
EMILY: Mr Baggott,
you're supposed to be cleverer than me because you're the teacher
but your games and thought experiments are stupid.
In proper life people aren't just out for themselves, and there's always a million things you don't know
And what I'm thinking is
you can't work out what is the good
you just know what is the good
that's what's good about it
BAGGOTT: You're an intuitionist
If it caught on it would lead to widespread unemployment among moral philosophers
Are you coming back to finish the course?
EMILY: I don't know. I don't understand what's come over Dr Antrobus.
FX:door
BAGGOTT: Who are you?
EMILY: Fat Man!
FAT MAN: This chick is toast!
SCENE 10: INTERIOR CHAMBER
Small crowd murmur.
WITCH FINDER: Chamberlain!Bring up the prisoners!
Prisoner A and Prisoner B! Which is which?
BOY: I’m the witch.
WITCH FINDER: And which are you?
EMILY: It's me who's the witch, doctor.
WITCH FINDER: (jokes~) No, it's me. Who's the witch doctor. HAHAHA…
No laughter in the public benches!
BAGGOTT: There wasn't any laughter in the public benches, Mr Witch Finder.
WITCH FINDER: As I justly observed. Wake up!
By the way, aren't you Mr Baggott?
BAGGOTT: I am.
WITCH FINDER: Well, what have you got to say for yourself??
Your student confesses to being a witch.
One wonders where she gets it from.
BAGGOTT: It's a false confession, Mr Witch Finder
EMILY: I’m the witch, I've always been a witch
and nobody bewitched me.
BOY: She's not a witch, I'm the witch.
BAGGOTT: Prisoners A and B are making false confessions to sacrifice themselves,
each for the other.
I’ve never come across a case like this in the game of Prisoner's Dilemma.
It's competitive altruism.
WITCH FINDER: Altruism?
BAGGOTT: Consideration of the other. Selflessness.
The Good in operation.
WITCH FINDER: We know what altruism is, Mr Baggott!-
Which is more than you appear to do.
Altruism is a relic of nineteenth-century moral thinking.
now understood to be its opposite, that is,
selfishness in disguise, genetically programmed for long-term benefits.
In other words, there is no such thing as altruism.
It makes a mockery of Prisoner's Dilemma studies,
and I intend to make an example of whoever's the witch here.
EMILY: I’m the Witch!
WITNESSE: (severally~)I am the Witch! I am the witch! I am the witch!
WITCH FINDER: Silence!...
What was all that, Mr Baggott?
BAGGOTT: Plagiarism, Mr Witch Finder.
WITCH FINDER: Well, I'm not having it.
She howled, she sobbed, she ululated, she uttered not one word of sense.
Yet, the witnesses caught in her enchantment heard her preach in words as plain as I speak to you now.
The land is blighted, and it is witchery plain!
WITNESSES :(collage~)She say about kin and kind-
She say we are natural-born to be kindly-
As a mother to a child-
As a brother to a sister-
WITCH FINDER:(interrupting~)Silence! Witchery, I said,
and the boy is in it up to his neck!
BANKER: Not just witchery,Mr Witch Finder
but falsehood! Sentimental twaddle!
In a state of nature are at war, each against all.
Nature doesn't teach hippy-dippy do-goody-goodery,
we'd still be living in caves without proper roads where you can put your foot down.
Nature teaches self-interest.
A just society with, for example, cuff links, depends on the enlightened self-interest of,
for example, bankers.
WITCH FINDER: And you are?
BANKER: A banker.
WITCH FINDER: Was it you on that plane?
BANKER: It was, thanks to that swine Baggott.
WITCH FINDER:Baggott again!
POLITICIAN: He thought me up too,Mr Witch Finder.
WITCH FINDER: Are you the pilot?
POLITICIAN: No, I'm the politician.
The pilot was already dead and had no moral position as regards the parachute.
WITCH FINDER: And where do you stand on burning the witch?
POLITICIAN: Ah, well, how does one establish she's a witch?
WITCH FINDER: By strapping her to a board and dunking her in a pond till she admits it;
the tried and trusted way of Witch finders through the ages
POLITICIAN: Let me say first of all,
when I say "witch' I don't mean to sound in any way witchist.
Inclusiveness is sacred to me.
Weirdos welcome within the law, is how I see it.
WITCH FINDER: Are you for burning the witch?
POLITICIAN: On the other hand,
constraints are the essence of a just society-
constraints, inclusiveness and accountancy.
(MONEY intro, continuing as underscore) POLITICIAN:I mean accountability.
BANKER: And accountancy.
POLITICIAN: And when I say "constraints', I mean liberties.
BANKER: And plenty of them, hear, hear.
WITCH FINDER : Do you two work together?
BANKER: No.
POLITICIAN : Not at all. We hardly know each other.
BANKER: We've only met socially.
POLITICIAN: We never talk about anything which might be a conflict of interest.
BANKER: Never. We have none.
(Intro)
Money, get away
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay
Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team.
Money, get back.
I’m all right Jack keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, it's a hit.
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit.
I’m in the high-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet.
(The story in ten sections, conforming to the instrumental bridge in sections approximating to the track-timings below~)
Money, it's a crime.
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie.
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today.
But if you ask for a raise it's no surprise that they're giving none away.
Emily Emily~ Emily, can you hear me?
Emily: Dr Antrobus~
Well down, everything went well (HuHuh! I was in the right!" Yes, absolutely in the right! I certainly was in the right! You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!)(Yeah!)(Why does anyone do anything?)
(I don't know, I was really drunk at the time)
Emily: Where is this?
You don’t have to worry about them, any more
Emily: But the voices
All gone
Emily: Where is my friend?
You have a rest now
Emily: Where is my friend?
I’ll come back to see you
SLEEP~NOW
(I don't know, I was really drunk at the time)
