"Mr. Penny Pincher" lyrics - STEPPENWOLF
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
Mr. Penny Pincher
You're on a downhill grade
'Cause living for the dollar
Is an account that's never paid
