Money`s Too Tight To Mention — текст песни (Simply Red)

I been laid off from work my rent is due
My kids all need brand new shoes
So I went to the bank to see what they could do
They said Son looks like bad luck got a hold on you

Money`s too tight to mention
I can`t get an unemployment extension
Money`s too tight to mention

I went to my brother to see what he could do
He said Brother I`d like to help you but I`m unable to
So called on my father, father
Almighty father, he said

Money`s too tight to mention
Oh money,money,money,money
Money`s too tight to mention
I can`t even qualify for my pension

We`re talking `bout reaganomics
Oh lord down in the congress
They`re passing all kind of bills
From up there on capital hill, we`ve tried it

Money`s too tight to mention
Oh money,money,money,money
Money`s too tight to mention
Cutbacks!

We`re talking `bout the dollar bill
And that old man who`s over the hill
Now what are we all to do
When money`s got a hold on you

Money`s too tight etc.

We`re talking `bout money money
We`re talking `bout money money
