Текст песни The Rent - Adam Joseph , Lady Red Couture

Boy, nothin′ in life is free
That's why I′m askin' you what can you do for me
I've got responsibilities
So I′m lookin′ for a man who's got money in his hands

Cause nothin′ from nothin' leaves nothin′
You got to have somethin' if you wanna be with me
Oh, life is too serious, love′s too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security
Oh, life is too serious, love's too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security
Oh, life is too serious, love's too mysterious
Cause ain′t nothin′ goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain′t nothin' goin′ on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

Cause ain't nothin′ goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain't nothin′ goin′ on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

Boy, your silky ways are sweet
But you're only wastin′ time if your pockets are empty
I've got lots of love to give
But I will have to avoid you if you′re unemployed

Cause nothin' from nothin′ leaves nothin'
You got to have somethin' if you wanna be with me
Oh, life is too serious, love′s too mysterious
A fly girl like me needs security

Cause ain′t nothin' goin′ on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain't nothin′ goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

Cause ain′t nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain′t nothin′ goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

Ain′t nothin' goin′ on but the rent
Ain't nothin′ goin' on but the rent
Oh, life is too serious, love's too mysterious
Ain′t nothin′ goin' on but the rent
Oh, life is too serious, love′s too mysterious

No romance without finance
No romance without finance (you look good to me)
No romance without finance
No romance without finance (you look good to me)
You look good, you look good, you look good
You look good, you look good, you look good
You look good to me
You look good, you look good, you look good

Cause ain't nothin′ goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain′t nothin' goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

Cause ain′t nothin′ goin' on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me
Ain′t nothin' goin′ on but the rent
You got to have a J-O-B if you wanna be with me

You look good to me
Oh, you sound so sweet
But your pockets, your pockets are empty
