I figured it out
I figured it out
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to be living like a king
I figured it out
He figured it out
I figured it out
He figured it out
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out
Only five years from today
Only five years from today
I can see it all before me
Only five years from today
Five years Let's see thats 260 weeks times forty hours every week and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime at time
And a half for overtime Comes to exactly $852 74
That's enough for me to get
An automatic washing machine
A years supply of gasoline
Carpeting for the living room
A vacuum instead of a blasted broom
Not to mention a forty inch television set
(Chorus)
So Although
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to be living like a king
(Babe)
I figured it out
(Chorus)
She figured it out
(Babe)
I figured it out
(Chorus)
She figured it out
(Babe)
Only ten years from today
Only ten years from today
I can see it clear as daylight
Only ten years from today
Ten years Let's see thats 520 weeks times forty hours every week and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime at time
And a half for overtime Comes to exactly $1705 48
That's enough for me to buy
A trip to France across the seas
A motorboat and water skis
Maybe even a foregian car
A charge account at the corner bar
Not to mention a scrabble board with letters made of gold
(Chorus)
So Although
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to be living like a king
(Babe and Prez)
We figured it out
(Chorus)
They figured it out
They figured it out
(Babe and Prez)
We figured it out
(All)
With a pencil and a pad they figured it out
(Babe)
Only twenty years from today
(Prez)
Only twenty years from today
(Babe)
I can see it like a vision
(All)
Only twenty years from today
(Prez and Babe)
Twenty years Let's see thats 1040 weeks times forty hours every week and roughly two and a quarter hours overtime at
Time and a half for overtime Comes to exactly $3411 96
Wow
(Prez)
That's enough for me to be
A sultan in a taj mahal
In every room a different doll
(Babe)
I'll have myself a buying spree
I'll buy a pajama factory
Then I could end up having old man Hasler work for me
(Chorus)
So Although
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to be living like a king
