1 Foot Party - Recession Blues lyrics

rate me

Verse 1<br />

The government said that we're outta money,<br />

So they made a plan to print some more.<br />

And five years from now what used to cost a dollar,<br />

Is gonna run yya three for sure.<br />

<br />

My broker said don't pay too much attention,<br />

Your money isn't really gone.<br />

And now that it's on sale you should buy a whole lot more<br />

'cause Wall street always turns around.<br />

Well I hung up the phone and made a new plan of my own.<br />

<br />

Chorus 1<br />

I'm gonna bail out, my old leaky boat,<br />

Patch it up and go fishin', not give things another thought.<br />

'Cause out there on the water, you can't hear the evening news,<br />

Hey I've had enough of those depressin' recession blues.<br />

<br />

Verse 2<br />

Things are changin' they always will,<br />

And the experts always say it's the end.<br />

They said "we're out of oil" , got the Asian flu,<br />

And things would never be the same again.<br />

<br />

Now I'm not saying it's all good news,<br />

But it ain't all bad.<br />

Any day above the ground is a great place to start,<br />

At least you've got a fightin' chance.<br />

You can hang up the phone and make a new plan of your own.<br />

<br />

Chorus 2<br />

I'm gonna, stimulate the economy, and buy a couple bottles of whiskey,<br />

Treatin' my buddies get's a great return and it's a heack of a lot less risky!<br />

When times are tough, freinds are the, one thing you can't lose,<br />

A sure fire cure for those depressin' recession blues.<br />

<br />

Bridge<br />

There's a lot of things, money can't buy you'd be sorry if you went without,<br />

And all those bandit's lyin' bout all the cookies in the jar ...<br />

Guess it's good they finally caught.<br />

Hey I'm getting back to things that really matter a lot.<br />

<br />

Chorus 3<br />

I'm gonna inventory, the good things in my life,<br />

I can still breathe the air and ther's someone who cares if I make it home at night,<br />

Every now and then, rememberin' I'm doin' more than just paying dues,<br />

And I won't entertain those depressin' recession blues.
