Penny For Your Thoughts
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I like to do our family blues
I like heavy metal songs
Tell me why I've got to choose
Which side of your fence I'm on
Are you with me or are you leavin?
Are you argumentative?
You all want some true believin'
Why'd you act so tentative?
Don't you act so sentimental
Kid, you've got some nerve
The reason I like the instrumentals
Is cause they haven't got any words
Penny for your thoughts,
Music for your money
Show me what you've got
Play it for me honey
I like Johnnie Walker blends
I like being juxtaposed
I like seeing Johnny's dad
Wearing Johnny's mother's clothes
I like the prince and you like the king
We both like the way Freddy Mercury sings
We're in too deep to call this thing a fling
So which one of you's gonna let me swing?
Don't you act so sentimental
Kid, you've got some nerve
The reason I like the instrumentals
Is cause they haven't got any words
Penny for your thoughts,
Music for your money
Show me what you've got
Play it for me honey
I'd like to take this opportunity to say
You can be a man of faith
Or you can be a hired gun
You be 1988 and I'll be 1941
Quit acting like a mama's boy
Instead of your father's son
Penny for your thoughts,
Music for your money
Show me what you've got
Play it for me honey
