Cash Machine

I scratch a living, it ain't easy
I wonder if I'll ever get
There's a hole in my pocket
You know it's a drag
You know it's a drag
She said it would be alright
My pocket, my pocket
It seems like sometimes
I live an honest life
I know that time is tight
I'm working for the cash machine
I can't afford to be a daddy
I've only just been paid
There's a hole in my pocket
I'm working for the cash machine
To where I want to be
I scratch a living, it ain't easy
Better believe it
But you can't look back
Ticket inspector's there
We tried to play it safe
There's a hole in my pocket
I'm always paying, never make it
So I leave tonight, no
Says, “Don't make plans, you're broke”
My pocket, my pocket
My credit's in the red
I'm always paying, never make it
You don't get by, no

I scratch a living, it ain't easy

I try to phone a friend
Three weeks five days

Better believe it, yeah

Better believe it
My girlfriend's test turned blue
I'm always paying, never make it

Cash machine
Cash machine

But you can't look back

But you can't look back
Cash machine
What am I gonna do?
You know it's a drag
No, no, this can't be right

You don't cross the line
I try to skip the fare
A message on the screen

There's a hole in my pocket
To where I want to be
That night we could not wait
No, no, this can't be right
No, no, this can't be right
To where I want to be
My pocket, my pocket

I wonder if I'll ever get

I wonder if I'll ever get
'Til I'm seen, right, no
