Take The Money - Carina Round

I took a plane to the west coast

To learn how to be someone else

Ended up in the desert

Sending postcards to myself

So many bodies on a washing line

All trying to taste success

I lost my soul in the rush, rush

I took the money and I left the rest

How long can I be

Hungry

How long can I be

Hungry

(Got love)

Got love and I’ve got soul

I’ll take the money

I’ll take the money

(Got friends)

Got friends wherever I go

I’ll take the money

I’ll take the money

(Got needs)

Got everything I need

I’ll take the money

I’ll take the money

Out of the crowd

Into the zoo

Ah, ah

T-take the money!

You know you’ve got me

In the elevator

You know you’ve got me

On the radio

You know you’ve got me

In the supermarket

I’m all yours at the disco

I’m gonna give it to you 'til you choke

This bogus poetry

I know the devil has won, won

I’m tangled up in the machinery

How long can I be

Hungry

How long can I be

Hungry

(Got love)

Got love and I’ve got soul

I’ll take the money

I’ll take the money

(Got friends)

Got friends wherever I go

Oh I’ll take the money

I’ll take the money

(Got needs)

Got everything I need

I’ll take the money

I’ll take the money

Out of the crowd

Into the zoo, zoo, zoo

The money

The money

The money

Take the money

T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-take the money!

T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-take the money!

Suck -a- cock- a -cess !

T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-take the money!

T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-take the money!
