I Fuck For Money Lyrics

Go ahead. Press the flesh with another dead televangelist. Now just smile. Hold. It’s all the same. Smiles and handshakes. We’re all the same. “We’re all dancing to the same song because we know it by heart.” This job turns us into our alcoholic fathers, rubbing elbows with clientele and putting our fists through walls. Smiles and handshakes. This tired song and dance routine feels like Monday mornings with coffee house intellectuals. It’s so quiet you can hear a name drop during the appropriate breaks. Punch your timecard and wait for tomorrow.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is a juxtaposition of dealing with worthless people and being a prostitute; sort of how they eerily connect. But when it comes down to it, this is all smiles & handshakes.
