SONG: Dime at a Time
ARTIST: Norma Jean
ORIGINAL LYRIC:
Two dollars in the jukebox...
And I'll put in the jukebox a dime at a time
ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION:
Two dollars in the jukebox...
With each song on the jukebox I'm a quarter shorter
|
| * 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! |
