Sooner or later it's a matter of money



And then it's just a matter of time



You can say you don't care and you think it's funny



But baby it's your life on the line



You're selling yourself and it's a matter of fact



Your love is your life and your life is your act



So ya gotta have something in 2/4 time



Ya gotta have something that always rhymes



Ya gotta have something in 4/4 time



Ya gotta have something



Gotta have something that rhymes



Continue to dream after you're robbed of sleep



even though the images fade



So grab what you can and all you can keep



Do you really think you'll come out unhurt?



You're selling yourself and it's a matter of fact



Your love is your life and your life is your act



So ya gotta have something in 2/4 time



Ya gotta have something that always rhymes



Ya gotta have something in 4/4 time



Ya gotta have something



Gotta have something that rhymes
