A song about worrying how to pay the rent.
I give you “Money’s Too Tight (To Mention)” by Simply Red. Lyrics are after the video — very much worth reading. Do they mention Resganomics? Oh, you know it.
I been laid off from work
My rent is due
My kids all need
Brand new shoes
So I went to the bank
To see what they could do
They said son – looks like bad luck
Got-a hold on you
Money’s too tight to mention
I can’t get an un-em-ploy-ment ex-ten-sion
Money’s too tight to mention
I went to my brother
To see what he could do
He said bro-ther like to help you
But I’m unable to
So I called on my fa-ther fa-ther
Oh my fa-ther
He said
Money’s too tight to mention
Oh mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey
Mo-ney’s too tight to mention
I can’t even qual-i-fy for my pension
We talk a-bout rea-gan-om-ics
Oh lord down in the con-gress
They’re passing all kinds – of bills
From down cap-it-ol hill
