hard work
push! dig! bend! pull!
sweat! hurt! break! again!
do it for the money
do it for the money
sitting on the corner
watching my old ass get older
i’m running out of time
i’m not feeling very high
i’ve got two nickels and one dime
now along comes a woman
and she’s got my body cooking
cuz she’s giving me the eye
oh why, i don’t know why
i’m not a very good-looking guy
then she comes up to me
and whispers in my ear
(do it for the money
do it for the money)
why don’t you work for me
and i will get you out of here
(do it for the money
do it for the money)
hard work
push! dig! bend! pull!
sweat! hurt! break! again!
do it for the money
do it for the money
she takes me to the cemetary
things are looking kinda scary
what is up with this?
was there something that i missed?
this doesn’t seem very legit
so she puts a shovel in my hand
and points towards a piece of land
and makes me dig a hole
and puts a gun up to my skull
and says that now she’s in control
then she pushes me in
and i fall onto my knees
(did it for the money
did it for the money)
i look back up at her
and say please oh please oh please
(did it for the money
did it for the money)
don’t do this
hard work
push! dig! bend! pull!
sweat! hurt! break! again!
did it for the money
did it for the money
i’m being buried alive
