Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Go to a cash machine

To get a ticket home

A message on the screen

Says, don't make plans, you're broke

No, no, this can't be right

I know that times is tight

I've only just been paid

Three weeks, five days till I've seen

Right

No

[Verse 2]

I scratch a living, it ain't easy

You know it's a drag

I'm always paying, never make it

But you can't look back

I wonder if I'll ever get to where I want to be

Better believe it

I'm working for a cash machine

[Verse 3]

I try to phone a friend

My credit's in the red

I try to skip the fare

Ticket inspector's there

No, no, this can't be right

I live an honest life

It's seems like sometimes you don't cross the line

You don't get by

No

[Verse 4]

I scratch a living, it ain't easy

You know it's a drag

I'm always paying, never make it

But you can't look back

I wonder if I'll ever get to where I want to be

Better believe it

Yeah

[Verse 5]

What am I gonna do?

My girlfriend's test turned blue

We tried to play it safe

That night we could not wait

No, no, this can't be right

She said it would be alright

I can't afford to be a daddy

So I leave tonight

No

[Verse 6]

I scratch a living, it ain't easy

You know it's a drag

I'm always paying, never make it

But you can't look back

I wonder if I'll ever get to where I want to be

Better believe it

I'm working for a cash machine

Cash machine

Cash machine

Cash machine

[Verse 7]

There's a hole in my pocket

My pocket, my pocket

There's a hole in my pocket

My pocket, my pocket

There's a hole in my pocket

My pocket, my pocket

There's a hole in my pocket

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
