Making A Killing

Cut your losses, cut your ties

Start a new life

These things, they can

Tie you up, weigh you down

Wear you in, then wear you out

One day, you could

Find yourself suddenly

Underneath the guillotine

You'll have to answer up for

What you want, what that means

That's the difference between

Breaking the bank and

Just breaking even

Making a living

Making a killing

Why don't you buy yourself a gift

For the work you've been putting in?

Maybe a little something

You could toss into that pit

Of emptiness you're pregnant with

Or maybe you could go and

Lose yourself altogether

Nothing's getting any better

Ah, no

Is that what you really want

After all is said and done with me?

Oh, that's the difference between

Breaking the bank and

Just breaking even

Making a living

And making a killing

Bills in a short stack

Bills to the ceiling

Making a living

And making a killing

Oh no

Is that what you really want

After all is said and done with me?

Oh, that's the difference between

Breaking the bank and

Just breaking even

Making a living

And making a killing

Bills in a short stack

Bills to the ceiling

Making a living

And making a killing

I found myself suddenly

Underneath that guillotine

For heaven's sake, I'm here, I'm willing

Let's make every one a killing
