Making a killing

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!
