More for Your Money |
When I was a kid, candy was a nickel |
Had some roller skates and a red bicycle |
It was the land of the brave, home of the free |
Some of our jobs jumped over the sea |
It was a high price to pay |
You’re gettin' more for your money today |
Way back then Daddy had his own business |
He was a self-made man, he was independent |
Then they opened this store, took up a city block |
Whatever you need you know they got it |
It was a high price to pay |
You’re gettin' more for your money today |
Well, I needed a part for my washing machine |
They picked up the call in the Philippines |
I got a Chinese phone and a Japanese car |
But the gasoline takes me twice as far |
Let’s pick it, boys… |
Bernie Madoff with the rich folks' money |
They didn’t think that was very funny |
Well, the Dow is up but the chips are down |
And there ain’t very many good jobs around |
It was a high price to pay |
To get more for your money today |
Last night I had a terrible dream |
I was eatin' these cookies and chocolate ice cream |
And the government didn’t want to pay the debt |
And the whole damn country got repossessed |
It was a high price to pay |
To get more for your money today |
It was a high price to pay |
You’re gettin' more |
For your money today |
