Switchfoot - DON'T WANT YOUR MONEY lyrics
[Switchfoot - DON'T WANT YOUR MONEY lyrics]
Ain't it funny how money is a thief
That we all give our life for?
Ain't it funny how money is a lover
That can never resolve?
Ain't it funny how money's just a number
That we argue and fight for?
And tell me, if money's good luck
Why does the stress go up
Whenever there's more money involved?
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, honey
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, next to me
Not just anybody, I just want you next to me
Honey 'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me
Want you next to me
Headin' for the lens where the
Ends, not the means, suffices
And we're aiming for the
Brink where there ain't
No time to think of the fall
Where history repeats and repeats and
We're drawn to our vices
We ain't lemmings on the cliff
Ain't it a gift when you answer the call?
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, honey
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, next to me
Not just anybody, I just want you next to me
Honey 'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me
Want you next to me
There's only dead men leaving the wills
There's only dead men on your dollar bills
There's just a dead man’s name on your trust
See, I got bills and
Change with ex-presidents' names
I bet they wish they were living like us
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, honey
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, next to me
Not just anybody, I just want you next to me
Honey 'Cause, I don't need your money, I
Just need you next to me
Need you next to me
So keep your dead men on your dollar bills
Yeah, keep your dead men on your dollar bills
So keep your dead men on your dollar bills
That we all give our life for?
Ain't it funny how money is a lover
That can never resolve?
Ain't it funny how money's just a number
That we argue and fight for?
And tell me, if money's good luck
Why does the stress go up
Whenever there's more money involved?
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, honey
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, next to me
Not just anybody, I just want you next to me
Honey 'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me
Want you next to me
Headin' for the lens where the
Ends, not the means, suffices
And we're aiming for the
Brink where there ain't
No time to think of the fall
Where history repeats and repeats and
We're drawn to our vices
We ain't lemmings on the cliff
Ain't it a gift when you answer the call?
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, honey
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, next to me
Not just anybody, I just want you next to me
Honey 'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me
Want you next to me
There's only dead men leaving the wills
There's only dead men on your dollar bills
There's just a dead man’s name on your trust
See, I got bills and
Change with ex-presidents' names
I bet they wish they were living like us
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, honey
'Cause, I don't want your money, I
Just want you next to me, next to me
Not just anybody, I just want you next to me
Honey 'Cause, I don't need your money, I
Just need you next to me
Need you next to me
So keep your dead men on your dollar bills
Yeah, keep your dead men on your dollar bills
So keep your dead men on your dollar bills
