Taking All My Money Away
Financial Whirlwind: Cody Nilsen's Take on Life's Money Rollercoaster
Lyrics
You only feel it when it moves
You only recognize its importance when it's active or affecting you.
Or when the tax man is sneaking up on you
Being aware of financial obligations when the tax authorities are about to collect.
To take your money away
The process of losing one's earnings to taxation.
Got a toothache and a new used car
Experiencing both physical discomfort (toothache) and financial stress (car expenses).
Auto pay is leaving auto scars
Automated payments causing enduring financial harm or marks.
Take my money away
The act of someone taking away the singer's money.
When it's gone
Once money is spent or lost, it's irrecoverable.
It's gone
When funds are depleted, there's no more left.
Scooped up
Metaphorically captured or engaged with someone unfamiliar.
In a strangers arms
Being held by someone not known or close.
Take my money away
Someone taking away the singer's money.
Half of my shit
Some possessions don't belong to the singer, acquired during unemployment.
Ain't even mine
Ownership of items obtained while seeking employment.
I found in the unemployment line
During unemployment, benefits were distributed.
They were giving money away
The act of disbursing money freely during unemployment.
Interest rates
Initially small financial increments snowball into significant debt.
An inch becomes a mile
A seemingly minor issue escalates into a major problem.
Then you got snake in your wood pile
A deceptive or problematic element within personal matters leading to financial loss.
Taking all your money away
The process of losing all of one's earnings.
When it's gone
Once money is spent or lost, it's irretrievable.
It's gone
When funds are depleted, there's no more left.
Scooped up
Metaphorically captured or engaged with someone unfamiliar.
In a strangers arms
Being held by someone not known or close.
Take my money away
Someone taking away the singer's money.
