[Chorus]

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life


[Verse 1]

This might come as a shocker to you, like sticking a fork in a wall socket

But I'm resorting to pickpocket or walking through store parking lots getting open car doors if they don't lock it

Yeah you heard me

I steal most the car I see but if it's one I've not stole [sic], I hop in the front seat and take all your quarters out the console

Look, I know what I did stunk [sic] but that's what you get, you little punk

And when I'm done with that shit I'll eat all the groceries out the trunk

(No, no, no, no)

I found some dude wearing J's and I thought they were fucking sick

I didn't even need new shoes bitch I stole them just for kicks

But kids, meet William, my getaway driver with the Volvo

He takes me to and from every single robbery that I go

Half of my money's underground inside of some box wrapped in a poncho

The other half of my stash is filling every inch of bathroom [sic] at my condo

Bet that's why they call me John Doe

Just keep this on the down-low (Shh)

I would like to rob this bank I mean, I'd like to make a withdraw

Let me start over

Hold up —this is a stick-up, show me the vault

Look here

This is a gun

It's a real genuine gun

It ain't for BB's, ain't for show and it ain't for fun

I'm gonna blow some motherfucking heads off if there ain't doe in this bag in three, two, one...

Right in the middle of a car chase and run out of gas

Pop the trunk and take out the cash

Sixteen bags it's too many to carry with cops coming up and the cops coming up fast

So I salvage all that I can but man, if I'm really such a villain, a crook, a thief or a felon, and just simply raising hell then handcuff me, keep me from yelling, stand up and take me to jail then

That's right Judy Sheindlin, why don't you take me to jail then?

If I've done those things you're claiming why don't you take me to psych

I know I'm guilty

So fuck it, I'm bailing


[Chorus]

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life


[Verse 2]

It's sickening I know

You just don't know it when you're well-fed with food on your table able to grab a loaf, not forced to steal doe, like an ill-bred

Half their money's beneath the floor and I got the rest in my tool shed, stacking from the liquor store that I went and robbed just like Will said

Who said?

I don't know his real name but I've always just called him Will

So in case we get trapped and caught I can say he forced me against my will

Still the next day I follow some pretty lady going into Hibachi Grill

I-I-I stand a little ways back trying to formulate a plan the woman smells of Dolc —sniff sniff— yeah Dolce&Gabbana

So then I approach this hoochie in the most orderly manner

Take her Gucci bag and slide across the whole fucking sushi counter (Ah fuck)

Look here

This is my gun

My absolute favourite gun

It ain't for BB's, ain't a toy and it ain't for fun

I'm gonna blow some motherfucking heads off if there ain't doe in this bag in three —you know what: you're done

Shoot a motherfucker in the ass

Wallet pops out the back of his pocket, now I'm picking up all of his cash

(This is all mine)

So whether it's a bank robbery, a common thief mugging, or a fucking burglary, if you see the cops coming start running, don't look at me

Better get under something, climb inside a bush or tree

Look, do whatever you need to not get caught, and go against everything your mama taught

Don't just stand around and talk sucking your thumb

Don't be dumb and walk

Don't walk; be smart and run

Police are coming, hear the sirens come

Fuck it's a heist gone wrong

Lights are flashing, it's kinda fun, till the car stalls when you're almost gone

Get the loot and cash buddy

Go and grab stuff, empty the trunk

Umm that's a cue to dash sonny

Get your bags of money and run

I repeat


[Chorus]

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life

Get your money and run, run, run

Don't stop 'cuz prize is your life


[Verse 3]

Am I the only one who knew you needed money for shoes?

Am I the only one who knows that you need money for clothes?

(I guess)

That you need money for rent (mhm)

And you need money to keep (I knew that)

Yeah, you need money for bread and you need money for meat

Like is it not understood that you need money to eat?

(Uh-uh)

Am I the only one repeating that you need money to eat?

(You need it)

If this is something we all need and everyone can agree then don't ask why robbed a bank

Honestly, like... why do you think?
