POUNDS AND PENCE

I think I’m in trouble
No money in the bank
Im living in a bubble
I think Im trouble

I think in trouble
i need to make a plan
Im just not that kind of man

and I can’t understand
I just want those dollars and cents
Those pounds and pence
so i can live my life without that leash around my neck

I think I’m in trouble
Im running through the jungle
every-time I take a step forward it feels backwards

I hear it in my mind
the futures knocking on my door
always asking me for more
I’m giving all i can
so i can try and live my life the way i want

and I can’t understand
where those dollars and cents have gone
those pounds and those pence
designed to leave my hands before the day is done

I think I’m in trouble
I’m living in a bubble
I think I’m ahead but its only Monday

the dollars and the cents
the pounds and the pence
hanging over my head
theres a price when your dead
they’ll bill you Sunday
