Clean Money
[Chorus]
Payday's coming (and we wash it away)
Clean money (wash it away), clean money (wash it away)
Payday's coming (and we wash it away)
Clean money (wash it away), clean money (wash it away)
That's what I wanna do
I wanna spend it on you

[Verse 1]
Checking on a checkmate
Grassing on a classmate
(Clean money) (money)
So beautiful and fortunate
He hates to love, you love to hate
(Clean money) (money)
He can fix you for good
'Cause he is the neighborhood
You can't get money for blood
Blood money for doing no good

But they won't take my love for tender
They won't take my love for tender
They won't take my love for tender

Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
[Chorus]
Payday's coming (and we wash it away)
Clean money (wash it away), clean money (wash it away)
Payday's coming (and we wash it away)
Clean money (wash it away), clean money (wash it away)
That's what I wanna do
I wanna spend it on you

[Verse 2]
Have you made your selection?
Are you ready for correction?
(Clean money) (money)
'Cause the wages of sin is an expensive infection
(Clean money) (money)
And it's under the counter, under the Geiger counter
Who stole your thunder?

But they won't take my love for tender
They won't take my love for tender
But they won't take my love for tender
But they won't take my love for tender

[Outro]
Tender, tender, tender, tender
Tender, tender, tender, tender
Tender, tender, tender, tender
Tender, tender, tender, tender...
