Skin trade (video)

G Em

1. Working on the weekend, baby, she’s working all through the night,

G Em

a jump into the deep end gave her the evidence she required.

G

Take five, she’s got pearls,

Em F

don’t fake it when it comes to making money.

G Em

So she smiled, but that’s cruel, if you knew what she’d think,

F

if you knew what she was after.

F G

Sometimes she wonders, and she laughs in her frustration.

2. Doctors of the revolution gave us the medicine we desired,

G Em

besides being absolutely painless it’s a question of compromise.

G

You’ve got steel, it’s so cool,

Em F

to get angry at the weekend, then go back to school.

G

So big deal, it’s what rules,

Em F

when it comes to making money, say, yes, please, thank you.

F G

Sometimes you wonder, and you ask yourself the question.
