Loose Change

[Intro]
I'd give you all of me to know what you were thinking
And if I had one wish I'd wish I wasn't sinking here
Drowning in this well
Oh, can't you tell?

[Verse 1]
I can't pick myself up off the ground
Well I've been face-down and pushed aside
Well you know I'd rather just turn tail and run
Than lie here in the sun and watch you pass me by
Cause I ain't worth a dime(Yeah yeah, oh yeah)
Yeah yeah (yeah yeah)

[Chorus]
But if only I could stand up straight
I wouldn't have to lie and wait
I could up and roll away, never be ignored
I've got a feeling that I'm something more
Than just a piece of copper ore
Turning green and looking for
The reason I was born

[Verse 2]
Well I've been around since 1964
In banks and bottom drawers
And on railroad ties
I've been passed around and cast aside
And skipped and flipped and flattened wide
Spun around and thrown away and left alone to lie

[Chorus]
But if only I could stand up straight
I wouldn't have to lie and wait
I could up and roll away, never be ignored
I've got a feeling that I'm something more (Yeah yeah)
Than just a piece of copper ore (Oh yeah)
Turning green and looking for (Yeah yeah)
The reason I was born

[Post-Chorus]
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
(Na-na-na-la-la-la)
Yeah yeah (Oh yeah)
Yeah na-na (Yeah na-na-na)
Oh yeah (Oh yeah)

[Verse 3]
But I heard about a penny found
Lying underneath the couch
By a woman who was kneeling down
Looking for some change
Then the woman danced around and called her friends all over town
Told them what was lost is found
It's another penny saved
And so I find that all this time
Beneath the surface I could shine
Like all the gold a king and queen could measure
You see, even a penny is a treasure

[Outro]
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah (Yeah yeah)
