Bobby Can You Spare A Dime lyrics
Visions of Johanna in Key West
Going down to the party like the rest
We’re all going down to count Bobby’s cash
All going to his 300 million dollar bash!
Bobby can you spare a dime?
Bobby can you spare a dime?
You got all that money in the bank
I ain’t got no gas in my tank
Bobby can you spare a dime?
Don’t give me that silent dirty stare
You said ‘Money doesn’t talk, it swears’!
We’re all headed towards our doom
Don’t need a gold covered tomb
Bobby can you spare a dime?
Was it all about the money?
Was it all about the cash?
Who you invited to your 300 million dollar bash?
Will Sarah, Mary or Hazel be the star guest?
Is Paradise really to be found at Key West?
Bobby can you spare a dime?
Bobby, were you having us all on?
Was it all one gigantic Con?
Some thought you were the rising sun
The Clean Cut Kid, Born To Run
Bobby can you spare a dime?
A.J. said a lot, maybe he was right
Remember in the alley you had that fight?
You sure did trash him alright
Then he disappeared outta sight
Bobby can you spare a dime?
From the same tribe, are we still brothers?
At one time we followed the same Mother
Bobby can you spare a dime?
Bobby can you spare a dime?
No-one compared to you in your prime
I ain’t-a-saying you didn’t walk the line
At one time you were the sign of the times
And I know suck cess is not a crime
So Bobby can you spare a dime?
We bought your Product and we made you rich
You threw us under a train, into the ditch
Did you sell your soul to the devil or God, which?
You went through hard times but now your rich
So Bobby can you spare a dime?
At the Bash, the one-eyed-midget shouts ‘Golden Cow’
Come on let me milk you now’!
As you take the stage in your chinese suit and you bow
As the paying crowd scream, ‘We want you, we want you – sing out now’!
You know Paul never preached, never stole
He gained our hearts, not our souls
It’s easy for you to deny your role
At the end of the line, one of us must know
Bobby can you spare a dime?
Well, your empty purse was full of rhymes
Now there’s no room for nickels and dimes
Your fancy lawyers they guard you well
How will you be remembered, time will tell?
The world it still burns
And He hasn’t returned
Soon you too will be gone
So before you too pass on
Bobby spare us a dime
Bobby spare us a dime
You got all that money in the bank
And we got no gas in our tank
Bobby spare us a dime
