Payday s coming and we wash it away
Clean moneyclean money
Payday s coming and we wash it away
Clean moneyclean money
That s what I want to do
I want to spend it on you
Checking on a checkmate
Classing out a classmate
So beautiful and fortunate
He hates to loveyou love to hate
He can fix you for good
Cause he is the neighborhood
You can t get money for blood
Blood money for doin no good
But they won t take my love for tender
Payday s coming and we wash it away
Clean moneyclean money
Payday s coming and we wash it away
Clean moneyclean money
That s what I want to do
I want to spend it on you
Have you made your selection ?
Are you ready for correction ?
Cause the wages of sin
Are an expensive infection
And it s under the counter
Under the Geiger counter
Who stole your thunder ?
But they won t take my love for tender
