The Prodigal Son

Okay...
 
Money, dough, dime, bills,
won't cause me worries even today,
I play with what has accrued on to the sleeve of my sock
I pack in to my backpack only the things I need,
and lift the boombox on my shoulder,
feels like heading from Finland to a beach resort, yeah
and it's the best when I go balls bounce like in ping-pong,
and as I sit on a deck chair and asking if I could get a drink,
then the worries are gone, I don't stress where the years could take me,
we circle Finland drinking on the road,
I may die young if it continues like this,
but why regret it I'm doing what I want,
damn, you can take it as a fairytale...
 
I let others deposit the big bills,
I just ignore them...
I live, play, travel and music plays,
You can't change your part, yeah yeah..
Can't change your amount...
 
Yeah yeah, okkay..
I don't adore bucks, paper, grand,
All I need are my friends and a paper and a pen,
and never could coin, dough nor currency replace friends, women and rap,
I let others run after money,
I always drink the money in the summer,
and I just have a tendency to spend a lot
and on weekends I splurge several hundreds in a bar,
nooo...then it distresses me again, but hey...it's just money,
you don't need a calculator to know that I have a bag full of alcohol again,
over two hundred stamps on my passport,
yep...as much bitches as the Old Mcdonald had,
I let others deposit the big bills,
but when I come to your town you'll hear the noise yep...
 
I let others deposit the big bills,
I just ignore them...
I live, play, travel and music plays,
You can't change your part, yeah yeah..
Can't change your amount...
 
yes...rä-rä-rähinä, cash, notes,
it would be hazard if it was raining notes of hundreds
God damn (damn), I won't worry (worry),
or worry about banknotes, just lay back and money into roulette, (yeah...)
that's it, you can't ever consider that I'm mingy,
the spark of the prodigal son comes out and why would I defy it,
you can't hold back your inner self with anything,
(yeaah) it won't piss me off if the money disappears from the account, (if it...)
thats is, if it lasts to tuning colours 1
and often there are days that quickly disappear on the sly
into my head, (but heyy...)
It won't control me and the amount of it won't turn my head into the wrong direction, (Tasis...)
I'm looking for something big, bigger than even banknotes, along roads I go and sip,
 
others probably think I'm just a beggarly tramp,
because I won't gather up materialistic lucre,
I drink them...yeah yeah
I drink them...
 
Okay...
 
I let others deposit the big bills,
I just ignore them...
I live, play, travel and music plays,
You can't change your part, yeah yeah..
Can't change your amount...
