Cameo

Cameo is an American soul-influenced funk group that formed in the early 1970s. Cameo was initially a 13-member group known as the New York City Players; this name was later changed to Cameo to avoid a lawsuit from Ohio Players,[citation needed] another group from that era. Since then, Cameo has recorded several hit records. As of 2009, some of the original members continue to perform together, while two others were hired by the hip hop group Outkast. Their influences include Rick James, Parliament-Funkadelic, contemporary funk bands like the Bar-Kays, Earth, Wind & Fire, Ohio Players, The Isley Brothers etc. and singers like Marvin Gaye, Billy Paul, Prince, Isaac Hayes, Stevie Wonder and Bootsy Collins. more »

Money, money, money, money

I'm here to make some waves
Hoping to convince you
Before you have a thing to say

Be it a car or expensive caviar
They go to your creditors
'Cause they know who you are

Don't leave your home
Without American Express
Never trust your friends
Without a very thorough credit check

Some people will pay you
With one eye on the clock
Others will have to pay
Through that friendly neighborhood loan shark

Fast, fierce and funny
The way people can play with your money

Now I tried to romance you
And I tried real hard
Everything was going good
Until they took my credit card

Now I'm not a flaky kind of guy you see
I've got plenty of money
But unfortunately not with me

Now you're my kind of girl
And you like nice things
I can tell by the clothes you wear
And the size of the diamond on your ring

As long as there's cash around
There's always hope
But once you see what your cash is worth
You'll deep six over and croak

Fast, fierce and funny
The way people can play with your money

Baby, check it out, there's no doubt
Use your head, save your bread
Baby, check it out
Baby, check it out

The Dow Jones average today hit an all time low
And sent the stock market crashing
Thousands panic in the effort to hold on to their assets
Washington has made an official statement
And we are about to take it live to Washington

Make that money, try to stay ahead
Make that money till ya drop dead
Make that money, now you're on your own
Now that bank won't give you a loan

Work your fingers to the bone
Makin' that money, gotta bring it home
Got no cash, gotta write a check
If they haven't closed my bank account yet

Money, money, money, money
[Incomprehensible]
Work your fingers to the bone
Gonna bring that money, money, hoh, yeah
