Easy Money
Words by Phillip Sandifer/Music by Brian Green

You got to wear the right clothes
Go to the right school
Gotta take the right drugs
The ones they say are cool
Got to be different, follow your own rules
Show the man in control, you're nobody's fool

But he's got you coming and going
He's had you pegged for years
You are the young, the curious
And you're making it very clear

Chorus
Cause you're easy money
You've got sucker written on your face
You're an easy ark when there's a scam to chase
Easy money
And though you think you're being uptown
He's just spinning you around and around,
you're easy money

He watches your every move, anticipates your groove
If it's in, he's there and you can bet
He's got a ton to spare
He's the system that you fight,
Giving you another bite
Any flavor that you like,
Don't matter if it's wrong or right

Chorus

Well the man still makes the clothes you wear
Sells the coke you share
He's not really on the other side
He'll bring you anything that you'll buy
It's the American way
How much can you pay
Place it in your sight
The man he's betting that you're gonna bite

Repeat Chorus
