Watchin' the mailbox
Behind the door with the double locks
He's sippin' on his Maalox, this old man
And every month a little check will come
He'll save a little and he's
squandered some
He's got to have it but
he'll never understand
He's livin' on Hush Monday
Hush Monday
Hush money, only making sure
Hush money, socially secure
Suburban housewife
The little woman with the little eyes
Her husband works the nights away
He keeps her happy with
the charge accounts
A little happy for a larger amount
He says, I love you, she says,
let me count the weight
Depending on her this Monday
Her this Monday
Hush money getting handed down
Hush money makes the world
go round
You could save it for a rainy day
You could up and blow it all away
Doesn't matter as long as
you keep it down
Down, down, down, down
You could spend it on a younger girl
You could buy
We Are The World
Finance
the revolution in the underground
Turn off the TV
There's starving children
here on Channel 3
I sent a check for what it means to me
I know
The principle
Hush money
Hush money
Hush money gets it handed down
Hush money makes the world go round
Hush money
Hush money
Hush Monday,
Hush Monday
Hush Monday,
Hush Monday
It's gettin' heavy now
Hush Monday
Hush Monday
Hush Monday
Hush Monday
Hush Monday
