2000 bucks would save my life,
200 bucks would ease the pain,
The I.R.S. is on my case,
But I refuse to let them make me go insane.2000 bucks would pay the rent,
200 bucks and fourteen cents.
Right about now would be enough some complement
So that I don't have to sell my instrumentI'm aware, I'm aware, I'm aware,
That pressure makes diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
My mamma told me, my mamma told me
That a girl's mouth doesn't get paid2000 bucks would save my life,
200 bucks would ease the pain,
But I refuse, I refuse, I refuse, I refuse
To let them make me, to let them make me go insane.
