Lyrics:
Have you heard about a power untold
It’s there whenever you trade something for gold
Just make money it takes care of the rest
With no work from you things work out for the best
It builds a world better than a world could be planned
It’s The Invisible Hand!
If they’re selling smoke and you can’t get enough
And you would kill for just one little puff
Then they find out it’s the smoke killing you
And they’d prefer no one had any clue
Who hides the truth so the smoke won’t get banned?
It’s The Invisible Hand!
The Invisible Hand can work wonders
It brings the best to the here and the now
And if there’s something that isn’t quite perfect
Well then it’s probably your fault somehow
If you see pain our injustice
or things that you must fix
Just stick your head in the sand
and trust
The Invisible Hand!
The Invisible Hand!
You want to disrupt things and climb to the top
You say you can test blood with just one little drop
A story so good that it captures the mind
But the technology’s lagging behind
Who says, “don’t worry, it’s time to expand”?
It’s The Invisible Hand!
The Invisible Hand!
The Invisible Hand!
The Invisible Hand!
