Mr Penny Pincher
Steppenwolf
[Intro] [Verse 1] There goes Mr. Penny Pincher Trying to make ends meet Some kind of super human Calculator [Verse 2] Providing for his family Is not an easy feat Even though a conscientious Money saver [Chorus] He stays working overtime Burning the midnight oil Cutting every corner In his never ending toil [Verse 3] There goes Mr. Penny Pincher Running for the bus The car is too expensive To be driving [Verse 4] He reads the morning paper But he leaves it in disgust Because the cost of living Keeps on rising [Chorus] His dream of long vacations And lazy carefree days Grows even more impossible With every bill he pays [Moog solo] [Bridge] [Chorus] Mr. Penny Pincher You’re on a downhill grade ’Cause living for the dollar Is an account that’s never paid [Chorus] Mr. Penny Pincher You’re on a downhill grade ’Cause living for the dollar Is an account that’s never paid [Outtro]
