Rodriguez - Rich Folks Hoax Lyrics






The moon is hanging in the purple sky
The baby's sleeping while its mother sighs
Talking 'bout the rich folks
Rich folks have the same jokes
And they park in basic places.

The priest is preaching from a shallow grave
He counts his money, then he paints you saved
Talking to the young folks
Young folks share the same jokes
But they meet in older places.

So don't tell me about your success
Nor your recipes for my happiness
Smoke in bed
I never could digest
Those illusions you claim to have going.

The sun is shining, as it's always done
Coffin dust is the fate of everyone
Talking 'bout the rich folks
The poor create the rich hoax
And only late breast-fed fools believe it.

So don't tell me about your success
Nor your recipes for my happiness
Smoke in bed
I never could digest
Those illusions you claim to have going.

  25. d.... ....

    a finite game is played for the purpose of winning, an infinite game for the purpose of continuing the play. there are no norms. all people are exceptions to a rule that doesn't exist. without doubting there is no seeking; without seeking there is no gaining

  26. G.... D....

    Those illusions you claim to have going......

  27. g.... a....

    🖤🖤🖤

  28. G.... B....

    Underrated, publicly unknown to the masses and an absolute genius poet

  29. D.... s....

    His music makes me want to carry on

  30. D.... B....

    This guy is an amazing talent. Never in the mainstream, I was so happy to find him a couple of years ago.

  31. t.... ....

    Your man always takes me to a wonderful dreamy memory or two.......

  32. B.... W....

    Must have had a nice maternal role-model Sixto? ~ LUcky you...

  33. S.... K....

    My video I made for this great song:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWT2rYSd4po

  34. D.... ....

    going through a divorce, living like a ghost the last couple weeks, this music is the only things that protects me from going insane. sounds weird right? but its true. this guy is a an angel. acept it !

  35. c.... s....

    brilliant song brilliant artist!!! this is music!

  36. R.... B....

    Savršenstvo, što ga više slušate, sve je bolji.A ima i velika doza melanholije! Pa, i plačite! Biće vam lakše!

  37. H.... F....

    True old world poet, humble true to his art and craft, Please don't compare Rodriguez to Dylan if you really listen to his music , you'd understand that would be Rodriguez's last thought ..

  38. k.... b....

    he is a legend

  39. D.... O....

    The moon is hanging in the purple sky.
    P.S. Yes, I m drunk! It took me a real effort to type this in lol.

  40. R.... Y....

    Do you know whats the best thing about Rodriguez? He wrote what he really believed in. Any good famous musician can write songs like that but in the end of the day he will sell his ticket for 50 bucks minumum. But this guy does what he preachs. As he said “ Those illusions you claim to have going”

  41. V.... N....

    Took too long to find you

  42. m.... o....

    why did they remove all his songs from spotify?

  43. b.... h....

    I ask around & still nobody knows about Rodrigez....what a shame. Im so hapoy that i have found him on Netflix!!.

  44. d.... d....

    This song is soooooo relevant to today and social media

  45. T.... ....

    And only late breast-fed fools believe it 😂😂

  46. S.... A....

    i gotta say his songs have a very soothing effect.just like the calmness you feel after drinking Yogurt or juice.

  47. N.... ....

    Услышала в российском сериале, вот нашла. Великолепно!!! Спасибо....

  48. E.... L....

    Prolific Singer* so talented * love your lyric's...

  49. S.... M....

    Looking forward next week - RoyalAlbertHall :-) Rodriguez is a must see- the man of real life.

  50. B.... ....

    Imagine if that record company guy hadn't schemed all that sweet south Africa money. I wonder if we would have way more awesome songs of his to listen to.

  51. a.... n....

    Very good !

  52. c.... ....

    Found me! Now I'm here.

  53. V.... V....

    à chaque fois c'est encore mieux

    Grande Rodríguez ☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️

  59. D.... B....

    The most amazing music you never hear on the radio.

  60. b.... p....

    Que ce soit en anglais et qu'on ne comprenne pas tout suffit-il à justifier l'engouement ? Ce qu'on comprend bien souvent déçoit ( puissance et pouvoir de l'imagination ... )

  61. t.... ....

    C'est bon ça!

  62. E.... C....

    The moon is hanging in the purple sky. Now we know where Prince got his idea for purple rain !

  63. P.... F....

    Mejor que Dylan y sin plagios, reproducciones de la gente rica en imaginaciÖff!

  64. M.... ....

    This song is full of feelings...makes me cry 😢

  65. R.... R....

    The 1% don't like this song.

  66. P.... V....

    Yeah Rodriguez ! You have won a new fan. ;-)

  67. T.... J....

    The moon is hanging in the purple sky
    The baby's sleeping while its mother sighs
    Talking 'bout the rich folks
    Rich folks have the same jokes

    He counts his money, then he paints you saved
    Talking to the young folks
    Young folks share the same jokes
    But they meet in older places.

    So don't tell me about your success
    Nor your recipes for my happiness
    Smoke in bed
    I never could digest
    Those illusions you claim to have going.

    The sun is shining, as it's always done
    Coffin dust is the fate of everyone
    Talking 'bout the rich folks
    The poor create the rich hoax
    And only late breast-fed fools believe it.

  86. S.... F....

    Aslamo Alikum, peace and blessings of God be upon you. We are all brothers and sisters and children of one man Adam and one woman Eve. All people belong to God and God belongs to all of them. All people come from God and go back to God, so all are One. We are all in same boat and in same train which starts from God and ends at God. One of the God’s name is Ahsan-al-Khaliqeen which means whatever God created is extremely beautiful and excellent. So we are all beautiful and excellent. The beautiful girls and guys all around us in this world are nothing but our beloved sisters and brothers. Not only we humans are just one family but all the angels, all the devils, all the plants, all the animals, all the mountains, all the winds, all the oceans, all the insects, all the birds, earth, sun, moon, all the stars, all the planets, all the galaxies, all this universe and everything inside it is just one family created by God and there is nothing like God and none equals to God in anyway. He is All-Loving, All-Forgiving, All-Knowing, All-Merciful, All-Gracious, All-Wise and All-Powerful. So we have a very big family. May God forgive all of us and unite all of us in His love and mercy and in His obedience. If we will be thankful to God and obey Him, this world will become a paradise. And on Day of Judgment, God will give us even a bigger paradise so beautiful and lovely that we cannot imagine where all of us will live in joy and pleasure forever. Please never forget to say many thanks to God and praise Him all your days and nights and ask for His forgiveness all the time. God wants we love others like we love ourselves. Ameen. Jazak Allah. :)

    Gracias !!!

    M.... D....

    Please, someone translate the meaning of the poetry in the lyrics, like, what does he mean when he says that "only late breast-fed fools believe it", is he talking about those deprived of love for fellow man?
    There are so many inferences of the rich views of the poor, like the title suggests that the lyrics are incredible.
    Love his songs!

    M.... D....

    @735vinnie I've always taken that line to mean those who believe in the illusion, the hoax are those who cling to their mothers breast too long, in a way, cling to their mothers folds, protected against the cruelties and famine of the world, nourished too long, mother knows best, a mama's boy type references. Of course, I could be 100% off.

    M.... D....

    735vinnie. Have you ever been to california!

    M.... D....

    Thank you <3
