The 1

I...ah got a check for nothing
All made out to someone
For I truly love myself

Murry says, “We're going to take the money sometime.”
Well it might as well be this time
We're going to spend it all on ourselves

Ken, well he picked this bank at random
I said, “Do we shoot them?”
And he said, “Either way's alright.”

Whistling boy that's Philip, he's our drummer
He does the theme from Endless Summer
Well he's waiting out in our ride

Throw the money in the van

It all worked out just like we planned
Now the good times have begun
That's not a fire, it's just the sun
It's like the old man said, “Take the money and run.”

What's the rush?
Let's take the one

Let's take the one

Love
It gets passed around so freely
They're so touchy and so freely
Well I'm hanging onto mine

I…ah like you California
Although I feel obliged to warn ya
We're all going rob you blind

What's the point of cutting tracks?

With all this money in the back
Now the good times have begun
That's not a fire, it's just the sun
It's like the old man said, “Take the money and run.”

What's the rush?
Let's take the one

Let's take the one

Now the good times have begun
That's not a fire it's just the sun
It's like the old man said, “Take the money and run.”

What's the rush?
Let's take the one

Let's take the one...
