lyrics

Money Isn’t Everything (if You’ve Got Some)

I don’t ever want to go back,
and I don’t want to remember it
It was like a bad dream every day,
and it still would be if I’d not quit.

There was endless boring detail stretching on for years and years.
And the slow cold realisation that it’s just not worth the tears.
And I know it’s easy for somebody like me to say,
But if i'd have stayed I’d be afraid.

Money’s not the end all, as long as you’ve got it.

Money’s not the be all and end all,
As long as you’ve got lots of it.
And when it’s on your mind then,
It makes it hard to really commit to quit.

It’s like endlessly bracing yourself for giant leap of faith,
Without a final end date and one foot over the brake.
And I know it’s easy for somebody like me to say,
I’ve reached plateau and got to go.

about

The Bittering Hops Nottingham, UK

Hey, Tom here from the Bittering Hops. You might remember me from such bands as The Atoms or maybe even The Poundstretchers. But this here is ALL NEW STUFF! The first album was written and recorded between Christmas 2020 and May-ish 2021. We kinda sound a bit like the Ramones, Screeching Weasel and The Queers etc. If that’s your thing, why not check us out! Thanks! ... more
