Joel Plaskett, Bill Plaskett - Blank Cheque lyrics
[Joel Plaskett, Bill Plaskett - Blank Cheque lyrics]
Don’t place my faith in religion
Or the free market
I’ll park it with the freaks
And geeks on the periphery
And Jake who’s down on Portland
He tell me he’s a shaman
I’m inclined to believe him
And now he needs some pocket change
Pay no attention to pimps and the day traders
I’ll spend my evenings making
Music in my neighborhood
Where stories spin on vinyl
In Dartmouth sales are final
Where we sing of love and sadness
Cause this modern world is madness oh honey
You can’t eat money you can’t buy love
With a big blank cheque hey baby
This world’s crazy it’s gonna take more luck
To save your neck
Don’t waste my morning reading
Letters to the editors
When the papers that they’re printed in
Are brought to you by billionaires
Where they barely scratch the surface
My portfolio is worthless
In a world so full of clowns
Man, you still wanna join the circus?
And you can’t get higher
Than the climate change denier
Who sips his gin and tonic
While the world goes microphonic liars
Or the free market
I’ll park it with the freaks
And geeks on the periphery
And Jake who’s down on Portland
He tell me he’s a shaman
I’m inclined to believe him
And now he needs some pocket change
Pay no attention to pimps and the day traders
I’ll spend my evenings making
Music in my neighborhood
Where stories spin on vinyl
In Dartmouth sales are final
Where we sing of love and sadness
Cause this modern world is madness oh honey
You can’t eat money you can’t buy love
With a big blank cheque hey baby
This world’s crazy it’s gonna take more luck
To save your neck
Don’t waste my morning reading
Letters to the editors
When the papers that they’re printed in
Are brought to you by billionaires
Where they barely scratch the surface
My portfolio is worthless
In a world so full of clowns
Man, you still wanna join the circus?
And you can’t get higher
Than the climate change denier
Who sips his gin and tonic
While the world goes microphonic liars
