The Great Convincer |
LyricsHe's the great convincerHe 'll rob you of your will Steal the last free moments of your free time And send you the bill. He's so confident and dedicated As he buys your interest in the deal Remember when he said it Son you got good credit How happy it made you feel. Gimme, gimme, gimme five, Gimme ten And I'll do anything for you And I will save up all my money So that someday, I can be convincing too. He's the Great Convincer He's got the power in the palm of his hand Makes no cents to argue with a powerful man He's got pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters Halves and dollars he's got money orders He's got rubles and francs, shilling and yen And he banks on those friends who stand convinced And want to be convinced again. Gimme, gimme, gimme five, Gimme ten And I'll do anything for you And I will save up all my money So that someday, I can be convincing too. The price is right so come on down He's the most convincing cat in town He's got pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters So step up people, place your orders He's got rubles and francs, He's got shillin, he's got yen And he banks on those friends who stand convinced And want to be convinced again. Gimme, gimme, gimme five, Gimme ten And I'll do anything for you And I will save up all my money So that someday, I can be convincing yea I can convince you! Gimme, gimme, something And I will give it to you! |
