[Verse 1]

She says "Baby, I don't jerk just anyone

"This one's under the table, it's gonna be loads of fun"

But he don't care 'cause she's like Mexican heroin

And it's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Verse 2]

She's a freelancin' hooker, a pusher's wet dream

Livin' on cocaine and sniffin' Vizine

She says "You can't wear it out, if you know what I mean"

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Chorus]

Strung out on hard times, easy money

Feelin' good don't feel bad, honey

And hard times, easy money

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Verse 3]

She says "Baby, I can't spell 'hypocrisy'

"But I can smell it in the air and see it on your sleeve

[?] love, forgiveness and greed

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Chorus]

Strung out on hard times, easy money

Feelin' good don't feel bad, honey

And hard times, easy money

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]

She's a freelancin' hooker, wild and [?]

Good at whatever her knees were adaptin'

Like six-dollar rooms with heart-shaped napkins

And it's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Chorus]

'Cause he's strung out on hard times, easy money

Feelin' good don't feel bad, honey

And hard times, easy money

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Verse 5]

He left the key to his heart stuck in the door

Glass still lipstick from the night before

When the Tijuana reef fell to the floor

Blockin' his hurt for a while

[Chorus]

He's strung out on hard times, easy money

Feelin' good don't feel bad, honey

And hard times, easy money

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

[Chorus]

Strung out on hard times, easy money

Feelin' good don't feel bad, honey

And hard times, easy money

It's blockin' his hurt for a while

It's blockin' his hurt for a while
