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
