Money Money
I need you honey
American Express sent me a message to pay
Green please fall from the sky, I haven't got all day
They're telling me I refuse to give it up
Well I think that statement sounds corrupt
If I had it, I'd fork it over
Never thought a phone operator could make me feel shorter
List of creditors I need to make good
I know I'm not alone and if I could
I'd get rid of the calls
Don't worry if my credit falls
This whole issue is half your own doing
Took money from the government, my owntax dollars
To me the 800s aren't worth pursuing
I used to care
Yea, I used to care
Then reality hit me and it seems unfair
Get laid off,
I Can't get a job
They get bailed out
I'll pay you back, no doubt*wink*
