ARTIST: Bob Dylan
ORIGINAL LYRIC:
I wish I had a shilling
For each senseless killing
ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION:
I wish I had a quarter
For each senseless slaughter

| * Payphones used to take dimes, but now they take quarters. Isn't
it time to update song lyrics to reflect the realities of
inflation? Alas, it's vastly easier to rhyme the word "dime" than
the word "quarter," but here at Inflationary Lyrics Headquarters we
have risen to the challenge. Please join the fun and share your
own inflationary lyrics, with both the "before" and "after" versions! |
