"Take The Money" lyrics
Two dead horses in a tight race
We beat 'em down until our backs break
They'll do anything to save face
We hold 'em up until our backs break
Two old men scream on a big stage
They'll say anything to get paid
I've got the money in the briefcase
They run their mouths until their teeth ache
I don't want to argue
I don't want to fight right now
I wanted to care but it's just so hard to
How did we get here?
And how do we turn around?
I wish I could say it gets better, don't you too?
The war on drugs might need a new name
We made a billion in a few days
Sellin' the same pill with a new taste
To some poor kids livin' out of a suitcase
We're the only dealers that go unscathed
Spend a hundred million like it was loose change
On each side of the campaign
They can keep on shouting until our tax breaks
I don't want to argue
So maybe just shut your mouth
I wanted to care but it's just so hard to
How did we get here?
And how do we turn around?
I wish I could say it gets better, don't you too?
Just take the money and run (Ah)
Come on and take the money and run (Take the money)
Just take the money and run (Ah)
Come on and take the money and run (Take the money)
Just take the money and run (I don't want to argue)
Come on and take the money and run (I know that I'm right, right now)
Just take the money and run (Take the money)
Come on and take the money and run
Two dead horses in a dead tie
Slingin' mud like it's a pigsty
The sheep are watchin' with a big smile
They might not make it another mile
We found a shovel and dug a big hole
We got complacent and we dug some more
We're so far down that now we're here to stay
We just keep on diggin' until the shovel breaks
I don't want to argue
So maybe just shut your mouth
I wanted to care but it's just so hard to
How did we get here?
And how do we turn around?
I wish I could say it gets better, don't you too?
Just take the money and run (Take the money)
Come on and take the money and run (Ah)
Just take the money and run (Take the money)
Come on and take the money and run
We beat 'em down until our backs break
They'll do anything to save face
We hold 'em up until our backs break
Two old men scream on a big stage
They'll say anything to get paid
I've got the money in the briefcase
They run their mouths until their teeth ache
I don't want to argue
I don't want to fight right now
I wanted to care but it's just so hard to
How did we get here?
And how do we turn around?
I wish I could say it gets better, don't you too?
The war on drugs might need a new name
We made a billion in a few days
Sellin' the same pill with a new taste
To some poor kids livin' out of a suitcase
We're the only dealers that go unscathed
Spend a hundred million like it was loose change
On each side of the campaign
They can keep on shouting until our tax breaks
I don't want to argue
So maybe just shut your mouth
I wanted to care but it's just so hard to
How did we get here?
And how do we turn around?
I wish I could say it gets better, don't you too?
Just take the money and run (Ah)
Come on and take the money and run (Take the money)
Just take the money and run (Ah)
Come on and take the money and run (Take the money)
Just take the money and run (I don't want to argue)
Come on and take the money and run (I know that I'm right, right now)
Just take the money and run (Take the money)
Come on and take the money and run
Two dead horses in a dead tie
Slingin' mud like it's a pigsty
The sheep are watchin' with a big smile
They might not make it another mile
We found a shovel and dug a big hole
We got complacent and we dug some more

I wish I could say it gets better, don't you too?
Just take the money and run (Take the money)
Come on and take the money and run (Ah)
Just take the money and run (Take the money)
Come on and take the money and run
