I wonder if I'll ever get
I'm always paying, never make it
Better believe it
To where I want to be
Cash machine
I scratch a living, it ain't easy
We tried to play it safe
But you can't look back
Better believe it, yeah
You know it's a drag
No, no, this can't be right
Three weeks five days
She said it would be alright
So I leave tonight, no
My credit's in the red
I can't afford to be a daddy
My pocket, my pocket
You know it's a drag
Cash machine
Says, “Don't make plans, you're broke”
I wonder if I'll ever get
I wonder if I'll ever get
You know it's a drag
I know that time is tight
I'm always paying, never make it
It seems like sometimes
No, no, this can't be right
I'm working for the cash machine
My pocket, my pocket
I live an honest life
I scratch a living, it ain't easy
There's a hole in my pocket
I try to skip the fare
That night we could not wait
There's a hole in my pocket
My pocket, my pocket
But you can't look back
My girlfriend's test turned blue
A message on the screen
But you can't look back
Cash machine
I'm working for the cash machine
To where I want to be
I scratch a living, it ain't easy
I try to phone a friend
'Til I'm seen, right, no
There's a hole in my pocket
I'm always paying, never make it
There's a hole in my pocket
You don't cross the line
What am I gonna do?
To where I want to be
Ticket inspector's there
Better believe it
No, no, this can't be right
I've only just been paid
You don't get by, no
