No More Pennies

I found a silver quarter in my pocket
I picked it up and then I lost it
Walked down checking every crack in the road
Instead, I found a golden rose

Looked up at you and then I lost it
No more pennies to fill my pockets
Buttered hands couldn't try to drop this
This kind of love don't fit in lockets

But then I dropped it

I thought I finally found a friend
Who'd put up with me until the end
Dumb and bored, I tried to stop it
Then I stuck a knife inside a socket

Stuck inside this useless rocket
Going nowhere, but I can't stop it
I can't believe I went and dropped it
This kind of love don't fit in lockets

But then I dropped it

I thought I'd send you some dead roses
(No more pennies to fill my pockets)
The kind of stuff you wouldn't notice
(No more pennies to fill my pockets)
Acting tough and striking poses
(No more pennies to fill my pockets)
I sit at home, I'm feeling hopeless
(No more pennies, I can't stop it)
Stuck inside this big old rocket

Going nowhere, but I can't stop it
'Cause I dropped it
