Hoodoo Gurus - What's In It For Me?

 

What?s in it for me?
You don?t get nothing for free.
You stand and shake your tin,
It gets under my skin.
I might see what i can do
In another year or two.

Let me see: what?s in it for me?
?cos you don?t - don?t get nothing free.
Can you stop? you keep after me
But i?m not - not a charity

Now you?re back again
Just like a long-lost friend
With your sorry tale of woe
But no-one wants to know.
Just give us a rest!
You?re making me depressed.

Gotta run, i?m a busy man
And i?ve done everything i can
But you keep stickin? out your hand
Pardon me, you?re in disneyland

And i know you?ll think it?s strange,
You, i know you?ll think it?s strange
But i don?t have any change.
So no change.

I?ll tell you for free:
Don?t waste your breath on me.
I?ve heard it all before.
Philanthropy?s a bore!

Charity!
What?s in it for me?
