No! Stop!
I don’t care about your earnings
If story is about money
Earn an urn
Pile your stories
Climb many storeys
Up, up, up
The edifying edifice
Up, up up
Story by story
Storey by storey
Should you fall
Should you fall?
Earn an urn
Bounce off the pavement
Be assumed into heaven
Burn! Earn an urn
Be assumed as smoke
Or eat tartar sauce in Tartarus

The song recommendation:

I keep listening to WAP.
Great tune.
“Whores in this house.” lyric describes an aspect of Medium well.
The rest of the lyrics are groovy too.
