Seven - And - A - Half Cents
(Prez) I figured it out I figured it out With a pencil and a pad I figured it out! Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot, Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing! But give it to me every hour, Forty hours every week, And that's enough for me to be living like a king! I figured it out
(chorus) He figured it out!
(Prez) I figured it out
(Chorus) He figured it out!
(Prez) With a pencil and a pad I figured it out! Only five years from today! Only five years from today! I can see it all before me! Only five years from today! Five years! Let's see..thats 260 weeks, times forty hours every week, and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime.. at time and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly.. $852.74! That's enough for me to get An automatic washing machine, A years supply of gasoline, Carpeting for the living room, A vacuum instead of a blasted broom, Not to mention a forty inch television set!
(Chorus) So! Although! Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot, Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing! But give it to me every hour, Forty hours every week, And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
(Babe) I figured it out
(Chorus) She figured it out!
(Babe) I figured it out!
(Chorus) She figured it out!
(Babe) Only ten years from today, Only ten years from today, I can see it, clear as daylight, Only ten years from today! Ten years! Let's see..thats 520 weeks, times forty hours every week, and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime.. at time and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly.. $1705.48! That's enough for me to buy Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com A trip to France across the seas, A motorboat and water skis, Maybe even a foregian car, A charge account at the corner bar, Not to mention a scrabble board with letters made of gold!
(Chorus) So! Although! Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot, Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing! But give it to me every hour, Forty hours every week, And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
(Babe and Prez) We figured it out!
(Chorus) They figured it out! They figured it out!
(Babe and Prez) We figured it out!
(All) With a pencil and a pad they figured it out
(Babe) Only twenty years from today
(Prez) Only twenty years from today
(Babe) I can see it like a vision
(All) Only twenty years from today
(Prez and Babe) Twenty years! Let's see..thats 1040 weeks, times forty hours every week, and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime.. at time and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly.. $3411.96! Wow!
(Prez) That's enough for me to be A sultan in a taj mahal In every room a different doll!
(Babe) I'll have myself a buying spree, I'll buy a pajama factory, Then I could end up having old man Hasler work for me!
(Chorus) So! Although! Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot, Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing! But give it to me every hour, Forty hours every week, And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
