SONG: Super-Connected
ARTIST: Belly
ORIGINAL LYRIC:
Are there heart strings connected
To the wings you've got slapped on your back?
Better climb in the window cause I'm closing the door.
Now I'm spinning on a dime.
ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION:
Did Groucho inspire
Your distinctive moustache?
Climb up the barber pole, don't bat a lash.
Now I'm banking on the cash.

| * 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! |
