Lake Street Dive Hush Money Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You tell the people and the papers what they oughta believe
You wave a shiny metal object where you want 'em to see
But there's a flame and I, I saw you fan it
All while you sayin' that you saved the planet
Now if you want me to be quiet, you won't get it for free

[Chorus]
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got bills to pay)
So let me get some of that hush money
Gеt, get, yeah, yeah, yеah ('Cause I got things to say)

[Verse 2]
You think you're charming, it's alarming just how blind you are
You've got a smarmy little army, you're a pint-sized czar
You can't win the game, so you a-plan to throw it
But I got a whistle and I think I'll blow it
And now you want me to be quiet, you won't get it for free

[Chorus]
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got bills to pay) So let me get some of that hush money
Get, get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got things to say)
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got bills to pay)
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got things to say)

[Bridge]
You think that silence is a thing that can be bought and sold
But when the money runs out, the truth'll be told

[Chorus]
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got bills to pay)
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got things to say)
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got bills to pay)
So let me get some of that hush money
Get, get, yeah, yeah, yeah ('Cause I got things to say)
