We were so happy...
Things worked out better than we had planned
Capital from boy, woman and man
We were like ink and paper
Or numbers on a calculator
Knew arithmetic so well
Working overtime
We completed what was assigned
We had to multiply ourselves
A bouncing little baby
A shiny copper penny
And he spent himself
Would not listen to us
But when he lost his appetite
He lost his weight in friends
He became a fat nickel so fast
Then came puberty
Exponentially
Soon our boy became a million
People loved him so
And helped him to grow
Everyone knew the thing that was best
Of course, we must invest
A penny won`t do, no
A penny won`t do, no
A penny won`t do, no
A penny won`t do, no
[Solo]
And he made us proud
He made us rich
But how were we to know
He`s counterfeit?
[Solo]
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
Now everything`s ruined, yeah
