Found a Penny Lyrics
Honey, you've not been the same since we pawned your gold molar
An hour of makeup to go to the grocery store
The man down the street has caviar to eat
Are you gonna go knockin' on his door?
My brush with fame is now a picture I've framed for the kitchen
But now that it's over, am I still the main you adore?
The old song and dance is like a Harlequin romance
That won't pay the gas bill anymore
Found a penny, hid it in my mouth, and I don't know where it's been
Found a penny, hid it in my mouth, and I don't know where it's been
If blue sharkskin suits and old white snakeskin boots get the women
Then the only true love that I've known was a kiss from my mom
'Cause fashion's a tease, an air-polluted breeze
The 2 A.M. lightning you think is dawn
Found a penny, hid it in my mouth, and I don't know where it's been
Found a penny, hid it in my mouth, and I don't know where it's been
In my sleep, I hear a call
Down the stairway and through the hall
Anywhere that we can go
So harmonies can echo
Honey, you've not been the same since the rain swelled the gutters
And all of our treasure washed up on the New Jersey shore
The kids get to build sandcastles with emerald faucets
And gold-plated doors
While I sing
Found a penny, hid it in my mouth, and I don't know where it's been
Found a penny, hid it in my mouth, and I don't know where it's been
