lyrics

Flipped suit, cell phone piece
Got the goods, runs so fast
Up the ladders down the streets
Your fuzzy little head is quite the beast
Bloody knuckles, no fingerprints
Coyote got into the chicken coop
Run for cover in the black
Electric eyes, quick attack

Meet at the lake where it all goes south
Bottom full of bones no one knows about
They don’t know, they don’t know, they don’t know
Money money here, money money there
Crawling off the wind, tousling my hair

First grade detective
Gotta get a little dirty to make a buck
Never the intention but green is sticky
When you’re in a rough patch, you don’t get picky

Everyone’s a liar, everyone’s a cheat
I’m cheating on you, but you can’t see
You don’t know, you don’t know, you don’t know
Money money here, money money there
Clawin’ at the dirt ‘cuz I want a share

I’m always in a rut, when it comes to life, when it comes to love
Besides, I don’t like to lose, I’ve been losing for such a long time

Mr. Hot Shot got shot in the head
Someone took the cash, I stashed the cash
I lie low, keep my head down
When it all blows over I’ll skip town

Gone like smoke, you never even knew
You’re at the bottom of the lake, no one will find you
They don’t know, they don’t know, they don’t know
Money money here, money money there
In the drink I drink, in the clothes I wear.

– Bernie Taupin, Elton John's cowriter

"I've never seen an unknown performer with more power as when I saw Ariana performing at a music convention – I couldn't stop talking about her. The last performer I felt this way about was Bruce Springsteen"
