Money Shot – English Lyrics

• By: AC/DC
• Album: Power Up

Lyrics & Translation

It appears there might be a misunderstanding regarding the song "Money Shot" and the artist AC/DC. AC/DC, known for their iconic rock anthems, does not officially have a song titled "Money Shot" in their extensive catalog of albums. Therefore, learning English through a non-existent AC/DC song would not be possible. However, the title "Money Shot" is associated with a song and album by the band Puscifer, offering a different musical and lyrical landscape for those interested in alternative rock. If you are interested in exploring AC/DC's actual lyrical content to learn English, their official songs provide rich examples of rock 'n' roll vernacular and themes.

[English]

Feeling the rock'n roll mood

Gonna make you feel good

Might be a little dangerous

I believe, I believe

You will see

It could be

Contagious

Doctor, what's the antidote?

Lady, try the money shot

Doctor, what's the antidote?

Lady, just try the money shot

Best taken when hot

I got a good prescription

For the state of your condition

You gotta take it three times a day

Or as much, or as much as you may

That's my diagnosis

Doctor, what's the antidote?

Lady, try the money shot

Doctor, what's the antidote?

Lady, try the money shot

Try the money shot

Hey

Oh

Now take this down

Gonna send you on your way

'Cause I believe I've solved your case

I'll give you your relief

Doctor, what's the antidote?

Lady, try the money shot

Doctor, what's the antidote?

Lady, try the money shot

We got a good cure for what ails ya

It won't fail ya

Try the money shot

Doctor, show me the antidote

I'd try the money shot

I'd try the money shot

Ooh, ooh

...
