Wildcat Money!
ChorusWildcat money!Wildcat money!
Karl OskarDo you have no shame?Dare you look me in the eyes?All this gold you ownAs I should have knowAnother of your god-damn lies!
This is children's pay-Wouldn't buy a blade of grassThese are empty thingsThat my brother bringsThis wouldn't do to wipe my ass
RobertI don't understand...

RobertI swear to you, they said-!
ChorusWildcat money
RobertFree, you are freeNot a slave, not like meChoosing your wayAs you pleaseAt your easeYour own master
Soon you will riseTo the crest of a waveTo be one with the sea everlastingOn giant shoulders you'll carry sailorsIn tall white galleonsTo far horizonsYou are going where I long to beTake me there, little streamTo the sea
