[00:00.000]
[00:09.000] When I was a kid, candy was a nickel
[00:15.000] Had some roller skates and a red bicycle
[00:21.000] It was the land of the brave, home of the free
[00:24.000] Some of our jobs jumped over the sea
[00:27.000] It was a high price to pay
[00:30.000] You're gettin' more for your money today
[00:35.000] Way back then Daddy had his own business
[00:40.000] He was a self-made man, he was independent
[00:47.000] Then they opened this store, took up a city block
[00:50.000] Whatever you need you know they got it
[00:53.000] It was a high price to pay
[00:56.000] You're gettin' more for your money today
[00:59.999] Well, I needed a part for my washing machine
[01:03.999] They picked up the call in the Philippines
[01:05.998] I got a Chinese phone and a Japanese car
[01:08.998] But the gasoline takes me twice as far
[01:12.998] Let's pick it, boys
[01:40.000] Bernie Madoff with the rich folks' money
[01:46.000] They didn't think that was very funny
[01:52.000] Well, the Dow is up but the chips are down
[01:55.000] And there ain't very many good jobs around
[01:58.000] It was a high price to pay
[02:00.998] To get more for your money today
[02:05.998] Last night I had a terrible dream
[02:12.000] I was eatin' these cookies and chocolate ice cream
[02:18.000] And the government didn't want to pay the debt
[02:21.000] And the whole damn country got repossessed
[02:24.000] It was a high price to pay
[02:27.000] To get more for your money today
[02:30.000] It was a high price to pay
[02:33.000] You're gettin' more
[02:35.000] For your money today
