Scam Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey, hey, yeah, I've got to scam
Got to scam
Ooh, got to scam

[Verse 1]
You say you fight to give us freedom
But often more than not this is abused
And the faces of a tired generation
Have decided they are sick of being used
For the purpose of the current declarations
Still the same, it'll never change until the end
Is to buy the appreciation of the nation
To cover the mistakes you must defend
And you say there'll be a chance for everyone
To protest against your calculated greed
But I can see and into the future
Won't be long before the welfare
Send me letters telling me how much they need
And it's not been in my interest to please them
For the only interest rate to fall is mine
See a brand new generation is demanding
What you've been doing with our money all this time?

[Chorus]
'Cause now I've got to scam
People try living life at speed of light
Scam
Don't know why but I have to do the things I do
Scam
Gimme a ten, that's the move I give you five
Scam
People say that it's the way to stay alive
Scam now
Scam
Hey, I know I gotta scam
I know I gotta scam (Ooh)

[Verse 2]
S-s-so you see, you have to be a schemer
If you wanna love the life you have to live
And it don't matter how much that I earn
'Cause I always get my fingers burned
When The Man gets down to his business
And I've been sear-sear-searching for a reason
Why I have to give it all up just when I want to get ahead
See I had to lose car, job, wife, dog and home
Debts and threats on the telephone
Maybe I should bust a move instead
Hey, now we all know when we watch the television
Not confused between a puppet or conviction
Glued to the screen by a thousand shallow words of wisdom
It ain't what it seems when it's a single-sided system
Hey, someone's got a hold on my living
I'm gonna have to do the thing that's fair
They've got to justify for what I should be giving
Should I lie, should I steal or should I care?
Hey, because I've got to scam
Scamming your life away

[Synth solo]

[Chorus]
Hey, scam
People try living life at speed of light
Scam
Don't know why but I have to do the things I do
Scam, hey!
Everybody's got to scam now
Scam
Ooh, bust them moves as quick as you can
Scam (Right on)

[Trumpet solo]
(Ohh scamming)

[Outro]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Now, I got to scam
Got to scam to get me through every day
Got to scam
Got to scam
I got to scam
Woah
Scamming for every day
Scamming for all my life
Scamming to pay my way
Hey, I got to scam!
No nine to five!
I gotta stay alive!
I gotta keep it all
Hey, I got to scam
G-g-g-g-g-g-goo
Scamming
Sc-sc-sc-sc-scoo-wah
[Scat]
Hey yeah!
