You've got the moneymaker
You've got the moneymaker
You've got the moneymaker
This is your chance to make it
Out, out, out, oh yeah
You'll get out, out, out, oh yeah
You've got the moneymaker
They showed the money to you
You showed them what you can do
Showed them your money
Make you get out, out, out, oh yeah
You'll get out, out, out, oh yeah
You are the moneymaker
She is yours for the taking
You know you want to make her
Show her your moneymaker
She said out, out, out, hell yeah
She said out, out, out, yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
And it's in my hands
I will if you want me to
She says out, out, out, hell yeah
She says out, out, out, yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
You've got the moneymaker
You've got the moneymaker
This is your chance to make it
Out, out, out, oh yeah
You'll get out, out, out, oh yeah
You've got the moneymaker
They showed the money to you
You showed them what you can do
Showed them your money
Make you get out, out, out, oh yeah
You'll get out, out, out, oh yeah
You are the moneymaker
She is yours for the taking
You know you want to make her
Show her your moneymaker
She said out, out, out, hell yeah
She said out, out, out, yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
And it's in my hands
I will if you want me to
She says out, out, out, hell yeah
She says out, out, out, yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah
You get out, out, out, oh yeah

Frustrations aside, my interpretation of this song connects it with the track previous, "close call". The way I see it, she sings of a man/woman who lived his/her life in a precarious crab shoot that is prostitution and general hooliganism, but found his/her golden opportunity into the porn industry. Given my view is accurate, I feel it's sad when porn is your only safe haven from a shit, uncertain life; out of the fire and into the simmering pan, I suppose. I've nothing against porn (egalitarian porn that is), imho, it's just another form of an uncertain life wherein contracting STD's is your reason for purchasing an insurance policy :(
um, what?
some of the people commenting here are gret representations of the reasons why i'm embarrassed for being a member of the young indie rock scene.
"Takes Offs and Landings" was a little indie-pop, kind of generic but still very fun and listenable and had great words (especially "Pictures of Success," one of their best songs every.)
"Execution of All Things" was more country/folky-ish. Their country roots came out, in songs like Good That Won't Come Out (another one of their best songs ever) and "Arms Outstretched." In my opinion, this is them at their best, on this album.
"More Adventurous" is where they get risky. They became a rock outfit, but still had a couple of their roots on some (like the glorious "Absence of God," the great title track, and the complex but spectacular "A Man/Me/Then Jim." Even their rockier songs, "Portions for Foxes" and "Love and War (11/11/46)" were really good and catchy and still had fantastic lyrics. I miss pre-Adventurous RK, but loved them all the while.
Now, with Under The Blacklight, they've gone to far. Too sleezy, thoughtless, and dumb. They're like a regular pop/rock band now. "Moneymaker" has less than 14 different lines, and the chorus is merely fiery panting. "Dejalo" rambles off stupid Spanish attempts and "Smoke Detector" is just limp. Jenny's lyrics are completely shot here, and I understand completely their concept, and what they wanted to write about, and they wrote about it. Good for them. But in doing so they lost their best assets: Lyrics. The music overall is fine, and "Silver Lining" ranks among one of their best songs, especially since it's the most old-RK here, and "Dreamworld" is hands down the best Blake Sennet song they've/he's done. But, the rest of the album is littered with none-too-effective lyrics and boring repetition. I hope this is a phase. Unlike most RK fans (not necessarily on here, I mean anywhere) I can defend my extreme distaste for the album. I only give it about a 4 out of 10. Maybe a 3.5.
This song sucks, so sorry to give you a giant review. But it just kept coming out.
Bye,
I think this song is in response to the record industry and their money grubbing antics and the porn industry is a metaphor kind of/ the songs theme. well, i'm probably wrong but those are just my thoughts on it.
If people thought More Adventurous was "poppy", then this is fucking Billie Jean.
