Текст песни: Penny For Your Thoughts + перевод

NOBODY PICKS UP A PENNY ANYMORE

THE OLD SIGNS ARE NOW NEW STORES

SALE, SALE, THERE’S ONE IN EVERY DOOR

IT’S A WONDER I DON’T GO OUT ANYMORE

There’s houses where the trees used to be

Oil cans in the sea

Bottled water for a fee

Hostages that were once free

Meter maids they’re never on strike

Traffic jams up and down the pike

$ 400 bucks just to buy a bike

$ 50 more for the kryptonite

Dinner is cold and so is your date

The grateful dead are now forty eight

We’re all trying to watch our weight

With tofu and granola

There’s pizza pads on every ave

Eighteen movies and they’re all bad

Your favorite group is now a fad

Heck the whole world’s gone mad

Why, look at baseball it just isn’t the same

Pete Rose ought to change his name

After all he bet on the game

Money’s more important than the hall of fame?

Manager’s, agents, they have no heart

Cutbacks, setbacks, tear you apart

The bills are paid but the car won’t start

Leave it in the yard, call it art

Sunny days yes there are those

But what’s the use when you have to wear clothes

Cake white junk on your nose

And all the spots where the cancer grows

Well i’ve tried real hard but it’s no use

I’ll stay at home with no excuse

Talk to my dog who speaks the truth

And protect myself from the murderers

And the fast food restaurants

The stabbers

The wanna be debutantes

The escapees

Who concrete parking lots

It’s a wonder i don’t go out anymore
