In It For The Money by Evil Eddie Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lighten up, sweetheart
Surgery's over
You've got a brand new start
A new leaf has been turned over
You've had the best of all the surgeons, the workmanship is great
Now it's like your birthday, time to cut the cake
'Cause come this time tomorrow, the world will see the lies
And know your mind too well
[Chorus]
'Cause when you're in it for the money
And for nothin' and no one else
You've gotta watch your understudy
And lie to every lover you kill
To take the prize
[Verse 2]
So tighten up, sweetheart
Go get made over
From now, you've gotta keep guard
And never let the mark leave sober
You've gotta stretch your field of vision and keep it open wide
Never let the animal know they live the lie
'Cause come this time tomorrow there'll be a brighter spark
And you'll be harder to sell
[Chorus]
'Cause when you're in it for the money
And for nothin' and no one else
You've gotta watch your understudy
And lie to every lover you kill
[Bridge]
But still when I look at your face I see money
Goin' to such a waste it's not funny
'Cause no matter what you pay to suck the gut in
There's still so many fucked up ways you're just a glutton
When I look at your face I see money
Goin' to such a waste it's not funny
'Cause no matter what you pay to suck the gut in
There's still so many fucked up ways you're just a glutton
When I look at your face I see money
Goin' to such a waste it's not funny
'Cause no matter what you pay to suck the gut in
There's still so many fucked up ways you're just a glutton
[Verse 3]
Your time is up, sweetheart
You've had your roll in the clover
And though you've got your street smarts
The fish has spit you out like Jonah
But in the middle of the ocean instead of on the land
I guess they must have noticed the vested slight of hand
Now your thoughts will circle and hunt you like the shark
But eat you piece at a time
[Chorus]
'Cause when you're in it for the money
And for nothin' and no one else
You've gotta watch your understudy
And lie to every lover you kill
To take the prize
Lighten up, sweetheart
Surgery's over
You've got a brand new start
A new leaf has been turned over
You've had the best of all the surgeons, the workmanship is great
Now it's like your birthday, time to cut the cake
'Cause come this time tomorrow, the world will see the lies
And know your mind too well
[Chorus]
'Cause when you're in it for the money
And for nothin' and no one else
You've gotta watch your understudy
And lie to every lover you kill
To take the prize
[Verse 2]
So tighten up, sweetheart
Go get made over
From now, you've gotta keep guard
And never let the mark leave sober
You've gotta stretch your field of vision and keep it open wide
Never let the animal know they live the lie
'Cause come this time tomorrow there'll be a brighter spark
And you'll be harder to sell
[Chorus]
'Cause when you're in it for the money
And for nothin' and no one else
You've gotta watch your understudy
And lie to every lover you kill
[Bridge]
But still when I look at your face I see money
Goin' to such a waste it's not funny
'Cause no matter what you pay to suck the gut in
There's still so many fucked up ways you're just a glutton
When I look at your face I see money
Goin' to such a waste it's not funny
'Cause no matter what you pay to suck the gut in
There's still so many fucked up ways you're just a glutton
When I look at your face I see money
Goin' to such a waste it's not funny
'Cause no matter what you pay to suck the gut in
There's still so many fucked up ways you're just a glutton
