Take The Cash (K.A.S.H.)

There´ s a rumour going round says you’re gonna split,
they say you’re going away, it´s a midnight blitz,
but there´s only good in leaving with a suitcase full of load,
‘cause where´s all the good times and the pocket full of I.O.U.s !
Take the cash, don´t let them pay you in kind,
take the cash before they change their minds,
and let´s see the colour of the money — take the cash !
It´s a secret operation, don´t want this getting out,
so watch it, watch it, watch it, if the payment doesn´t bounce,
it´s the sweetness of the ready, makes the bell ring on the till,
and if they say they pay next week, you know: they never will.
Take the cash, don´t let them pay you in kind,
take the cash before they change their minds,
and let´s see the colour of the money — take the cash !
And if they try to tell you there´s a cheque in the post,
you know, you know, you know that you can take it as a joke.
Take the cash, don´t let them pay you in kind,
take the cash before they change their minds,
and let´s see the colour of the money !
It´s a heavy operation, got to do the job and run,
so don´t pretend you trust, and get the money down up front,
‘cause it´s the sweetness of the ready, makes the bell ring on the till,
and if they say they pay next week, you know they never will.
Take the cash, don´t let them pay you in kind,
take the cash before they change their minds,
and let´s see the colour of the money - - - take the cash !
Take the cash — take the K.A.S.H.
