Clean Money Lyrics by Elvis Costello

Clean Money Lyrics

    Payday's coming and we wash it away
    Clean money, clean money
    Payday's coming and we wash it away
    Clean money, clean money
    That's what i want to do
    I want to spend it on you

    Checking on a checkmate
    Grassing on a classmate
    So beautiful and fortunate
    He hates to love, you love to hate
    He can fix you for good
    'cause he is the neighborhood
    You can't get money for blood
    Blood money for doin' no good
    But they won't take my love for tender

    Payday's coming and we wash it away
    Clean money, clean money
    Payday's coming and we wash it away
    Clean money, clean money
    That's what i want to do
    I want to spend it on you

    Have you made your selection ?
    Are you ready for correction ?
    'cause the wages of sin
    Are an expensive infection
    And it's under the counter
    Under the geiger counter
    Who stole your thunder ?
    But they won't take my love for tender
