I'm stuck, stuck in a skyscraper
Wasting time riding through elevators
From the top to the bottom, back up again
Standing at the doorway, I swear there's no end
To this climb steady chasing down that paper

(For love or money, for, for love or money)

I'm not the guy to fall in love
With anyone, maybe I'm just no fun
I don't work a 9-5 just to make a dime
To spend it 5-9, babe, I'm not the type
To love, when there's work to be done

I feel ya, babe, I can't ignore
For love or money, back and forth
I hear her now, she's talking so loud
I'm thinking I'm headed for the ground
Like elevators, going up, going down
Up, down, up, down

(For love or money, for, for love or money)

Is it time, time for you to go?
Time flies when you want time to slow
It's been a nice night, if only for an hour
Exit on the right, bottom of this tower
Cuz now it's time for you to go

I feel ya, babe, I can't ignore
For love or money, back and forth
I hear her now, she's talking so loud
I'm thinking I'm headed for the ground
Like elevators, going up, going down
Up, down, up, down

(For love or money, for, for love or money)

You're on the 13th floor now
You're above me looking down
I stop where I'm at and stare
How do I get up there?
I take the stairs

I feel ya, babe, I can't ignore
For love or money, back and forth
I hear her now, she's talking so loud
I'm thinking I'm headed for the ground
Like elevators, going up, going down
Up, down, up, down

(For love or money, for, for love or money)
