They're shutting off the phone, cutting off the gas, I can't afford to heat, the water in my bath, I'm barely getting by, I'm hanging by a string, its a money thing. I could sell my body, I could sell my s**m, I could sell my blood, with the money that I earn, I could buy my baby a little plastic ring. It's a money thing, and I got none, it's a money thing, I gotta make some, money. I stare into the windows, of couple filled cafes, the men all act like winners because they all can pay, how can I compete with what they're offering. It's a money thing, and I got none, it's a money thing, I gotta make some, money.
I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, sh**. It's so disheartening, the cash is always king, happiness and love just don't mean anything, I'll never have enough, I'll never have enough. It's a money thing, and I got none, it's a money thing, and I got none, it's a money thing, I gotta make some, money. I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, it's a money thing, I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, it's a money thing, I found a cheap date but she wasn't so cheap, money.
