Cash - Patti Smith

Here we go around again

Curve of life spiraling

Everything we’ve ever known

As the seed of life gets blown

And the miracle of time

When will that time just end

Remember, you decide

Take that vow

Grab that ring It’s not a whim

Not a whim

When you be cashing in

Try to turn your life around

And all the things you do resound

And then you can’t loose control

Say your time has come and then

Hard to pinpoint find the seam

Where that one time ends

Where that time begins

Remember, you decide

Take that vow

Take a stand

Grab that ring

It’s not a whim

It’s not a whim

It’s only time

That you’re cashing in

In the white noise of desire

We can’t hear a single thing

Floating round the fragile bough

Afflictions of the human soul

Its beauty immaterial

You decide

Stand along

The fallen ones

Take revenge

Defeated sons

Rend that coat

From seam to seam

It’s only time

It’s only time

That you spend

You spend

It’s only time

You spend

Its only time

You spend

It’s only life

That you’re cashing in
