[Verse 1]
I was walkin' down the main street
With my eyes open wide
I was lookin' side to side
I was walkin' down the main street
With five pennies in my hand
But I couldn't spend 'em
In this inflated land

[Verse 2]
Maybe I'd find somebody
With five pennies just like me
Maybe we could pitch those pennies and see
Oh, I might wind up with ten
Or I might wind up with three
Any way is alright with me

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I was walkin' down the main street
With five pennies in my hand
But I couldn't spend 'em
In this inflated land
