Blood Money

The Church · Other Songs - The Church

Blind with dollars, bought and sold

And you pay for everything in cold, hard cash

Better read through the fine print, you sift through the ash



In the hand, blood money

In the sand, blood money



She's worth the ransom, he says, "Do you accept my card

Or can I pay for it now in cold, hard cash?

I'm priceless, you're worthless but it's not a bad match"



And I know you understand, it's blood money

In the hand

There's such a big demand for blood money

In the sand



A hundred and fifty grand, blood money

In the hand

It's flowing under the land like blood money

In the sand



He's worth the ransom, she says, "Why can't you get hot

Because you pay for this now in cold, hard cash?

You make the front page, I'm gonna bring back the lash"



Then I know you'll understand, it's blood money

In the hand

There's such a big demand for blood money

In the sand



A hundred and fifty grand, blood money

In the hand

It's flowing under the land like blood money

In the sand
