In the middle of night In the second sun, very last shades of day I see that nobody kids anymore Though we look that way, we were 24, growing up 'Cause it's easy to be the miser when no ones the wiser It's easy to shake down Easy to bring the green in various ways Oh, it's easy to wear the crown They say that this place ain't got a heart 'Cause I can still hear the beat And every night is oh-oh-oh-ah-oh, oh-oh-oh-ah-oh From all the way down the street It goes on and on and (as long as you got the money) On and on and (as long as you got the money) On and on and (as long as you got the money) On and on and (slumlord doesn't care) Staying at the hallway till Saturday 'Cause you got no rent to pay Dreams are shoeing up next to none with no room again Honey, those days are done Shelling out three G's for four walls and keys Hey, at least you can run the town Shaking our pockets loose, hey, what's the use? I guess we're kicking this city down They say that this place ain't got a heart 'Cause I can still hear the beat And every night is oh-oh-oh-ah-oh, oh-oh-oh-ah-oh From all the way down the street It goes on and on and (as long as you got the money) On and on and (as long as you got the money) On and on and (as long as you got the money) On and on and (as long as you got the money) It goes on and on and (if you want that money) On and on and (if you want that money, hey-eh-eh-yay) On and on and (if you want that money) On and on and (if you want that money, hey-eh-eh-yay)
