Expensive Being Poor Lyrics

Expensive being poor

And the car is of the road

but I never had a car

But I pay more for food

but the supermarkets too far

It´s expensive being poor

because everything cost more,

knocking on a closing door,

it´s expensive being poor,

someone throw me down some crumbs

I will eat them off the floor,

it´s expensive being poor

but I look good when I get desperate.

And the box is on the fritz,

it´s a black and white, or was,

I tried taking it to bits

now the picture´s just a grey fuss.

It´s expensive being poor

because everything cost more,

someone pick me off the floor,

it´s expensive being poor,

how can I live with what I did

when the cinema is 6 quid?

It´s expensive being poor

but I look good when I get desperate.

Let the good times roll TV Smith - Expensive Being Poor - http://motolyrics.com/tv-smith/expensive-being-poor-lyrics.html

into a bottomless hole

with job friends and future

my ideal home furniture,

let the trumpets sound

as my house falls down.

And the dust begins to clear

and I´m lying on the ground,

and I´m standing on a path

in an unknown part of town,

and the path leads me away

over hills and out of sight,

in the blazing sun by day

and the hanging moon by night,

and I wind up in a place

where I never have to count,

and I never see the waves

as I push my leaking boat out.

It´s expensive being poor

because everything hurts more,

knocking on a bolted door,

It´s expensive being poor.

Someone throw me down some crumbs

I will eat them off the floor,

it´s expensive being poor

but I look good when I get desperate..
