*might be "Pour money"

**I do believe it's "feats", like in Gorillaz feat. Mos Def... ;>

I know not every word, or even line, is correct, but I'm having a hard time kinda putting it all into context. Bet there's a lot of expressions and other stuff that I don't know about simply because I'm not english. Not sure what "the times in/to/and the eight/eights" is all about either. Snooker/pool? Counting cards? Obviously about some form of gambling, about how money is everything today, lots of casino references in there. Not sure that's the entire meaning of this song though, that "big feats"-bit got me confused... Might also have something to do with the album in itself. Awesome song anyway!
