First things first, I don't wanna be forgotten Even worse, I don't wanna be alone But if it all stops today, I'll probably say I didn't waste a minute when I'm finished
Brand-new faith and I'm ready for the camera's mention And all I pay is my money and my damn attention Didn't get me the deal that got me to feel How you would hear my sentence when I'm finished
You can do it for the money, money, money But the money makes them all the same Everything's sunny but the sunshine fades away Everything's black (everything's black) and white (and white) No grey (there's no grey) (There's no grey)
Pitch black frames, you can see me when I wear my lenses And all they say is how I'm fake and I don't get offended And when push comes to shove, I'll show enough I didn't need to listen when I'm finished
"You're insane," what you said when I'd explain the game plan Nothing's changed, except a little more change in my hand Now I don't mean to brag, life wasn't bad But now with the shows and women, it's not finished
You can do it for the money, money, money But the money makes them all the same Everything's sunny but the sunshine fades away Everything's black (everything's black) and white (and white) No grey (there's no grey) (There's no grey)
It ended up with gold but it started as a dream If I get cold, put some honey in my tea I used to be broke, now there's money in my jeans I was broke now there's money in my jeans, hmm I was broke now there's money in my, hmph, hmm I was broke now there's money in my jeans
You can do it for the money, money, money But the money makes them all the same Everything's sunny but the sunshine fades away Everything's black (everything's black) and white (and white) No grey (there's no grey) (There's no grey)
