lyrics

Jimmy’s in a band in LA

Pissing his life down the drain

Jenny’s at a school in Rhode Island

And no one gives a damn but her parents

And though they’ve never been in the same room

The two encounter all the same issues

Ask ‘em bout their plans for tomorrow

They’ll tell you that they’ve already lost hope

No one seems to wonder why Everyone before us

Was always doing everything right

Maybe it’s becasue we’re all wrapped up in ourselves

and we can’t ever keep from losing sight

They take the money and run

They take the money and run

cuz maybe all along they take all they want from us

They take the money and run

Used to be if you worked hard

You could always count on going far

That was long before all our fathers

decided that they’d ilfer the coffers

No one seems to wonder why Everyone before us

Was always doing everything right

Maybe it’s becasue we’re all wrapped up in ourselves

and we can’t ever keep from losing sight

They take the money and run

They take the money and run

cuz maybe all along they take all they want from us

They take the money and run

So Jimmy went and sold his guitar

and got himself a job in law

Jenny went and started a band

and stuck her middle finger up to the man
