Anything for Money Lyrics

I'd sell my mother and I'd steal from the blind
Just to have every last nickel and dime
Break-ins and muggings, I'll try to defraud
I'll run up the bill on your credit card

Anything for money
I'll sell a secret and betray the land
Robbing a friend, isn't larceny grand
Buying and selling, the running of guns

I run from the law but embezzle their funds
Anything for money
Anything for money
Hundreds of thousands without a concern

Millions and billions there's money to burn and I want it all
I'll try to sue you and take you to court
And if I have to blackmail and extort
Taking the money to fund my research

Swindling millions by using the church
Anything for money
Anything for money
Hundreds of thousands without a concern

Millions and billions there's money to burn and I want it all

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.

The song delves into the extreme lengths some individuals will go to acquire wealth and material possessions, portraiting a character who is willing to engage in various illegal activities, such as selling secrets, betraying the country, swindling through the church, robbing friends, exploiting the legal system, and running guns. It serves as a critique of the destructive power of money and the moral compromises that can occur when it becomes the sole focus of one's life.
