Cash Machine (Acoustic Version) Lyrics


Go to a cash machine
To get a ticket home
A message on the screen
Says, Don't make plans, you're brokeNo, no, this can't be right
I know that time is tight
I've only just been paid
Three weeks five days
'Til I'm seen, right, noI 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 backI wonder if I'll ever get
To where I want to be
Better believe it
I'm working for the cash machineI try to phone a friend
My credit's in the red
I try to skip the fare
Ticket inspector's thereNo, no, this can't be right
I live an honest life

It seems like sometimes
You don't cross the line
You don't get by, noI 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 backI wonder if I'll ever get
To where I want to be
Better believe it, yeahWhat am I gonna do?
My girlfriend's test turned blue
We tried to play it safe
That night we could not waitNo, no, this can't be right
She said it would be alright
I can't afford to be a daddy
So I leave tonight, noI 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 backI wonder if I'll ever get
To where I want to be
Better believe it
I'm working for the cash machineCash machine
Cash machine
Cash machineThere's a hole in my pocket
My pocket, my pocket
There's a hole in my pocket
My pocket, my pocketThere's a hole in my pocket
My pocket, my pocket
There's a hole in my pocket
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hard-Fi are an English indie rock band formed in Staines, Middlesex in 2003. The band's continual members have been Richard Archer (vocals), Kai Stephens (bass guitar), Ross Phillips (guitar) and Steve Kemp (drums). Staines is a suburban location 16 miles (26 km) southwest of Central London that has significantly influenced their musical style and lyrics.

Hard-Fi achieved chart success with their third single, "Hard to Beat" and then followed by other successful singles such as "Cash Machine" and "Living for the Weekend", which all reached top 15 in the UK Singles Chart. Their debut album Stars of CCTV was released on 4 July 2005, and although receiving critical acclaim (NME called it album of the year and was nominated for the Mercury Prize and two BRIT Awards, Best British Group and Best British Rock Act), it didn't reach #1 in the UK albums chart until six months later on 22 January 2006. It originally peaked at number 6. The band's second album, Once Upon a Time in the West, was released on 3 September 2007 and reached number 1 in its first week.

They are generally considered part of the indie rock scene, alongside bands such as Franz Ferdinand and have often been compared to a modern version of The Clash.

Hard-Fi's latest album, 'Killer Sounds' was released on 22 August 2011, and has produced 3 singles, 'Good for Nothing', 'Fire in the House' and the anthemic 'Bring It On' which also featured in the game Football Manager 2012. The band also recorded the track 'Like a Drug' for the hugely popular Twilight - Breaking Dawn film, and following demands from fans finally released it as a single on iTunes on 16 December 2011.
