She's In It For The Money

[Prometheon]

After listening to this (amazing) intro to Sort of a Protest Song, I think I have the lyrics down. Here ya go:

 

In love with your pills

I can get rid of my self

Follow this (fatherless?) kills (skills?) (this is the only part I'm shaky on)

Why am I so hard on myself?

In this town, when the sun goes down

You party, I pay the bills

In this room, I look around

At everything I've built

 

And it don't mean a thing

Ain't that terrible to think

She's in it for the money you know love don't mean a thing

Build your heart a diamond and it don't need no ring

It gets me lying sideways and everytime I sing

She's in it for the money, you know love don't mean a thing

She's in it for the money, you know love don't mean a thing

[S.E. Hardy]

Is there a recording of this song anywhere?

[joeposh]

Follow this (fatherless?) kills (skills?) (this is the only part I'm shaky on)

I believe it's: "If all of this kills"

 

I was waiting for this thread to pop up. I agree it's a great song.

Edit: Dont want to cause problems.

 

 

 

 

 

But is there a recording of the song??

I'd love to hear it.

Likewise.

There's a recording of it on the hub. It's part of the London show that's on there.

The hub sucks. Put it on Yousendit or NF store, I want to hear it!

[Crusader]

Track on the way thanks to pinostack.

the hub sucks eh.... how about i stop taping shows and you get nothing instead

[Crusader]

Lol, it doesn't 'suck', a lot of people just can't get onto it ;).

[prototypepariah]

excited to hear a studio version of the song for a change, wonder if it's just gonna be a live intro ala some of the suburbia live cuts.

[JudasJudas]

Is the Hub compatible with a Mac? I'll assume yes and just download the stuff I need.

[Crusader]

Not sure. We're working on an alternative to direct connect hubs and manually uploading stuff so watch out for that.

[Prometheon]

Sorry, but I converted the song from FLAC, and thus I can't share it

 

Edit: Oh, and Anton, I'm pretty sure you're right about it being "Father, this kills."

 

Edit 2: hmmmm, actually there's a case to be made for 'if all of this kills' as well.

[Crusader]

It's up in the store.

[Prometheon]

Oh, and Anton, I'm pretty sure that in When Hollywood Runs Out of Indians, the last line is

 

When hollywood runs out of indians

only the indians will know

 

(instead of only the indians will rule)

[Safeskin]

was the boot of this song put up in the store?

 

i would love to hear this song... can you compare this song to anything matt has done in the past.

 

i love the lyrics...

[icantremember1989]

could you put sort of a protest song in the store or on you send it please?

[little miss sunshine]

It's up in the store.

But I can't see it! Was it removed?

I've listened to it a few more times and still think it's

"If all of this kills" and that he just slurs the first few words together so it sounds similar to "father". It seems to match up better with the next line too. Looks like we'll have to wait for another recording to tell definitively though.

I'm glad you got "She's In It For The Money" and "When Hollywood Runs Out Of Indians" up on the NF store. He didn't play them at the Buffalo show.

I agree with you, but there's an R sound in there that I think is very off-putting
