- Take The Money Lyrics / with translationsI was hoping
You would lean on my side
I was counting
On all the years we go back
Expecting a different reaction
I've been throwing
Everything on the line
While you've been wishing
For an easier life
We thrive on separate motivations
If you're gonna go for safe over trust
If you're gonna trade your peace for glory
If you're gonna go for lust over love
I'm not gonna stand in your way so ...
Take the money and run away
Take the money and run away
Take the money and run away from me
I was hoping
You would cash on your pride
I was counting
On you to hop on the ride
I was thinking
That you would go for the long run
If you're gonna go for fast over right
If you're gonna walk and run over me
If you're gonna go for silence fight
I'm not gonna stand in your way
Go for fast over right
go for silence over fight
You can trade your peace for glory
Go for safe over trust
Go for lust over love
Go ahead and walk over me
You would lean on my side
I was counting
On all the years we go back
Expecting a different reaction
I've been throwing
Everything on the line
While you've been wishing
For an easier life
We thrive on separate motivations
If you're gonna go for safe over trust
If you're gonna trade your peace for glory
If you're gonna go for lust over love
I'm not gonna stand in your way so ...
Take the money and run away
Take the money and run away
Take the money and run away from me
You would cash on your pride
I was counting
On you to hop on the ride
I was thinking
That you would go for the long run
If you're gonna go for fast over right
If you're gonna walk and run over me
If you're gonna go for silence fight
I'm not gonna stand in your way
Go for fast over right
go for silence over fight
You can trade your peace for glory
Go for safe over trust
Go for lust over love
Go ahead and walk over me
