Lyrics
MONEY FROM THE SATISFIED MAN
What do you do with it, what do you buy with it,
Maybe you just get a little high with it,
Feed your kids with it, or get a fix with it,
Money from the satisfied man.
There’s a pretty one there and she doesn’t care,
But life’s a bitch and so unfair,
She’s hooked on the money, but it makes her sad,
Doesn’t like the men, and it feels so bad.
CHORUS
Waitin’ in the parlour for the parlour games,
Standin’ on the corner in the pourin’ rain,
Money in your pocket from your last trick,
I’ve gotta ask it.
Are you feelin’ fine, are you feelin’ kind,
Sortin out the punters in your own good time,
Is it worth all the looks from the men on the loose,
Does the money give you peace of mind?
What do you do with it, what do you buy with it,
Maybe you just get a little high with it,
Feed your kids with it, or get a fix with it,
Money from the satisfied man.
CHORUS
Waitin’ in the parlour for the parlour games,
Standin’ on the corner in the pourin’ rain,
Money in your pocket from your last trick,
I don’t understand it.
Does your mother know, does it ever show,
You say you have no option but you feel real low,
But if it’s feelin’ wrong, like you don’t belong,
Just turn your back and go.
If it’s feelin’ wrong, like you don’t belong,
Just give the money back, turn around and go.
