From the album One Size Fits All: Can't Afford No Shoes. 1975. RIP Frank Zappa. 12/21/40 - 12/4/93
Lyrics read-along essential. Come on. This is a poet. Below the fold...
Have you heard the news?
(What news, uh, what news? )
Can't afford no shoes
(Get a good deal on tape)
Have you heard the news?
(What news? can't afford a paper)
Can't afford no shoes
(hi-ya-hiii)
Went to buy some cheap detergent
Some emergent nation
Got my load
Got my load
Got my toad
That I stowed
Well, well
Hey lawdy mama,
Can't afford no shoes
Maybe there's a bundle of rags that I could use.
Hey anybody,
Can you spare a dime -
If you're really hurtin, a nickel would be fine.
Hey everybody -
Nothin' we can buy,
Chump Hare Rama, ain't no good to try.
Recession
Depression
