You Stole My Money, Honey Lyrics
You stole my money honey
You're cold your blood's stopped running
And know you're buying your new life
Can't help but find you funny
The clothes you wear are something
You made your whole life boasting lies
Pretend you're high and something
To think, you think I'm dumb, you're blind!
I'll get by fine without you
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
It's up to you
You're such a fool
See I'm a giver, taker!
You liked your cocaine chaser
The girls you love all sleep around
You got a piece of something
But what it's worth is nothing
Coz what you want you just can't buy
Pretend you're high on something
To think you think I'm dumb, you're blind
I'll get by fine without you
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You got no style about you
I try to like you
I got no time for you now
Cos your time's running out
It's up to you
You're such a fool
I'll get by fine without you
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You got no style about you
I try to like you
I got no time for you now
Cos your time's running out
It's up to you
It's up to you
Such a fool
It's up to you
You're cold your blood's stopped running
And know you're buying your new life
Can't help but find you funny
The clothes you wear are something
You made your whole life boasting lies
To think, you think I'm dumb, you're blind!
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You're such a fool
You liked your cocaine chaser
The girls you love all sleep around
You got a piece of something
But what it's worth is nothing
Coz what you want you just can't buy
To think you think I'm dumb, you're blind
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You got no style about you
I try to like you
I got no time for you now
Cos your time's running out
You're such a fool
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You got no style about you
I try to like you
I got no time for you now
Cos your time's running out
It's up to you
Such a fool
It's up to you

Don't think this song is that deep. Pretty self-explanatary.
It's a grower and a good tune but it did have me worried as to the direction the phonics were going. But new album is back to form :)
Excellent song - Simple and direct.
The "You Gotta Go There To Come Back" Album was their finest work... LSVO is a pile of bollocks & although Pull The Pin was a slight improvement, they just don't compare to the outstanding first four albums.
I hope they return to more mellow work at some stage in the future.
A stranger (Albert), who is only known for having seduced a lot of girls the previous week after he arrives in town, looking for a drawing to buy (a work of art he saw at an art gallery), disturbs a couple (Vicky a drawing artist and Bernard her boyfriend) at their house to spend the night there (he has suitcases), then he carelessly sits down and lights a good one while talking culture to Vicky (he thinks she's ready to sell him a drawing). The upset Bernie wonders if the uplifted Bert is either bragging it up or dragging it up to seduce her, until he finally gives in and talks to Bert in a brutal way (this song) : the money the stranger has on him is to buy a drawing from her, not to pay her for sex or cocaine (the boy mistakenly thinks the stranger is a tough guy and cocaine addict, because of his carefree attitude and refined clothes) - the "fool" and his belongings are thrown away by the couple before he could pay for the drawing. No matter, Albert and Victoria later become good friends after she and Bernard split, and the former stranger unsuccessfully tries to trust her former boyfriend.
