Bobs - Food To Rent lyrics

rate me

Down at the grocery store<br />

They got those things I like to eat<br />

Oh, yeah<br />

Down at the grocery store<br />

I got enough for a box of Cream of Wheat<br />

Oh, yeah<br />

Don't you know I'd rather have a pound or two<br />

of prime red meat<br />

Down at the grocery store<br />

Countin' out my pennies for some bread<br />

Oh, yeah<br />

Down and out, you know I'm poor<br />

I'm sick of having margarine to spread<br />

On bread<br />

Listen Mr. Manager I'd like to rent my food instead<br />

You rent it to me I'll bring it back<br />

You rent it out to someone else<br />

You'll make more money than you ever did before<br />

Food to rent, food to borrow<br />

Deposit required, I'll return it by tomorrow<br />

Down at the grocery store<br />

I'm tradin' in my chicken for some beef<br />

Oh, yeah<br />

Even though I may look poor<br />

I rent my food, I'm not a common thief<br />

Oh, no<br />

The roast I got is A.O.K. it's former owner had no teeth<br />

You rent it to me I'll bring it back<br />

You rent it out to someone else<br />

You'll make more money than you ever did before<br />

Food to rent, food to borrow<br />

Deposit required, I'll return it by tomorrow<br />

Down at the grocery store<br />

Now everybody's got enough to eat<br />

Oh, yeah<br />

People walkin' in and out the door<br />

Hear the thunder of their feet<br />

Oh, yeah<br />

Kids are trading bags of brussel sprouts in<br />

for their favorite kind of treat<br />

(Tofutti!)<br />

Food to rent, food to borrow<br />

Deposit required, I'll return it by tomorrow
