Robbing Peter to Pay Paul

They call me daily
To fix on in.
Each time I'm broke
More than I've ever been.
Still they
Take and take again.
Seems like I never win.

That's why
I'm robbing Peter to pay Paul.
I feel the freaks
Pin my back against a wall.
From one week to the next
I'm always holding less.

If I make a wager
You raise me.
It would be nice
If they'd fuckin' pay me.
But they take and take again.
Seems like I never win.

That's right
I'm robbing Peter to pay Paul.
I feel the freaks
Pin my back against a wall.
From one week to the next
I'm always holding less.

Now I won't accept defeat.
I got a temporary fix for a
Temperamental heat.
Still they
Take and take again.
Seems like I never win.

Yeah
I'm robbing Peter to pay Paul.
I feel the freaks
Pin my back against a wall.
From one week to the next
You know, I do my best.
