Lyrics
The Money Show
somewhere in the city
there's a reason to wait
somewhere there's a girl i wanna know
somewhere up in heaven
there's some cream on a plate
somewhere there's a dream i want to stow
so if you're thinking 'bout the money
you should be thinking about the show
it's just a little bit of money
i don't wanna win, just wanna go
somewhere in the city
there's a dream running late
somewhere there's a world i wanna know
her frequency is rising
like the steam off a grate
somewhere there's a girl out of control
so if you re thinking 'bout the money
you should be thinking about the show
it's just a little bit of money
i don't wanna win, just wanna go
she said, "you're either too cool or it's too hot to
so would 69ยบ & a pressure drop be pushin' my luck, baby"
i'm rolling the dice inevitably
so are you, phoning your luck in
or are you just fuckin' with me, with me, with me
somewhere there's a sun that
spent the weekend awake
somewhere there's a girl I'm gonna owe
little did i think she'd
take a season to shake
then dream about her three times in a row
so if you re thinking 'bout the money
you should be thinking about the show
it's just a little bit of money
i don't wanna win, just wanna go
