Shiny Penny Blues

You can keep your paper bills And your fancy bank accounts

I don't care about the numbers Or the giant gold amounts

Because my head is kind of empty

I don't think things through

But I know what is pretty And I know what to do (oh

yeah)

Give me one single copper penny

I don't need a million bucks

Pennies are way shinier and cooler

Those paper bills are just for ducks (hahaha)

I might not be the smartest guy To walk upon this land

But a shiny copper circle Looks so heavy in my hand

Green paper is so boring

It doesn't catch the light

But a freshly minted penny

Keeps me smiling through the night

Give me one single copper penny

I don't need a million bucks

Pennies are way shinier and cooler

Those paper bills are just for ducks

(oh yeah)

Yeah,

just one penny (keep the change)
