Take the money and run

Where they rip you off with a smile
他们笑里藏刀将你欺骗
And it don't take a gun

Don't it hurt so bad
这伤痛难道不令人窒息
In love city
在这爱之城
Don't it make you not want

To bother at all
失去所有期待
And don't they look

So self righteous
道貌岸然的嘴脸
When they pin you

Up against the wall
逼至绝境之时

With the tear drops in their eyes
