Cut your losses

Cut your ties

Start a new life



These things they can tie you up, weigh you down

Wear you in then wear you out



One day you could find yourself suddenly

Underneath a guillotine



You'll have to answer up for

What you want and what that means



That's the difference between 

Breaking the bank and

Just breaking even



Making a living and 

Making a killing



Why don't you buy yourself a gift for the work you've been putting in



Maybe a little something you could toss in that pit

Of emptiness you're pregnant with

Or maybe you could go and lose yourself altogether

Nothing's getting any better

Oh, no!



Is that what you really want when all is said and done with me?

That's the difference between

Breaking the bank and 

Just breaking even

Making a living and

Making a killing



Like bills in a short stack

And bills to the ceiling

Making a living and

Making a killing



Well I found myself suddenly

Underneath the guillotine



For heaven's sake, I'm here, I'm willing

Let's make everyone a killing!
