NY Money

(álbum: Side Effects - 2019)

The drugs quit working
I don't find them inspiring
A number I'm dialing
A string unwinding
Gap tooth waitress
In a five star diner
A need so clear
But you can't eat the timing
And it's not about meat
It's about all of us surviving
Am I really here
If I always feel like I'm dying?
I hear much clearer
When the music goes quiet
Sing out your guts
'Cause you got the nerve to try it
Let's string up your kite kid
And ind somewhere to fly it
You think looking out for mine
Is some kind of crime?

Well get ready
You can watch me
D-d-d-d-disappearing
Act like you knew all along
Because you just couldn't help it, no

What does that make you?
Another leach on the skin of it
You jump out in the road
So you can preach about the thrill of it
But what are you bringing
If you're trying not to give a shit?
Ooh, you're so dexterous
You just kill it
A piece of my heart
Take it straight to the bank
Look so confused now
'Cause nobody thanks me
Umbrella girls
All lined up for their spankings
New York money
It's open wide for the taking
Can't wait to hear
'Bout how you got there first
I can't wait to see you
Wearing that good old smirk

Yes I'm ready
You can watch me
D-d-d-d-disappearing
Act like you knew all along
You just couldn't help it, no

Start with the letters
Build for the stage
Aim at the postman
He's acting his age
We were made so differently
And I see it so clear
We're all still here
Hiding the same old fears
Kick out the jam
Till the jam isn't interesting
Kiss on the wrist
Of the hand that is blistering
Moment to moment
I become a new person
Under the weight
Of your sense of worth
And I can't wait to hear
About how you got there first
I can't wait to see you
Wearing that good old smirk
Yeah somebody's waiting
Just to watch you choke
Forget what they say
Just thank 'em for the notes

And get ready
You can watch me
D-d-d-d-disappearing
Act like you knew all along
You just couldn't help it, no
Disappearing
Disappearing
Knew all along
Disappearing
