mr. penny pincher

there goes mr. penny pincher

trying to make ends meet

some kind of super human

calculator

providing for his family family

is not an easy feat

even though a conscientious

money saver

he stays working overtime

burning the midnight oil

cutting every corner

in his never ending toil

there goes mr. penny pincher

running for the bus

the car is too expensive

to be driving

he reads the morning paper

but he leaves it in disgust

because the cost of living

keeps on rising

his dream of long vacations

and lazy carefree days

grows even more impossible

with every bill he pays

mr. penny pincher

you're on a downhill grade

'cause living for the dollar

is an account that's never paid
