about

This is the radio edit of Forty K.

lyrics

Half ten and the call comes through
Tonight is going to be the night
Efficiency and speed are what we need
So for this job we're travelling light
Got to be alert tonight
Can't afford to blink your eyes
Heart beating so fast as we await the blast
That signals that we've won the prize

What we do ain't right
Hold it up to the light

You got your steady job
You're living within your means
But who wouldn't give it up in a flash
For a life like in the magazines
So in the van with the plan made good you'd think we could
Relax and think of what's to come
But we're watching each other through narrowing eyes
Down the barrel of a hidden gun

What we do ain't right
But hold it up to the light
And see it shine
See it shine
