"My Girl is a Dime" by Charlie Wilson
ORIGINAL LYRIC:
My girl is a dime
Dime dime dime
My girl is a dime
Dime dime dime
Man I got a dime
dime dime dime
ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION:
My girl is a dollar
Holler, holler, holler
My girl is a dollar
Call her, call her, call her
Man I got a dollar
Ain't no Montrealer*
*No disrespect to the Canadian dollar is intended.

| * 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! |
