"Too Much Candy for a Dime" by Eddy Raven
ORIGINAL LYRIC:
You're just too much candy for a dime, ain't no way
I can look into those eyes of yours and walk away
You think I would know better, but I fall every time
You're just too much candy for a dime
ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION
You're just too much candy for a tenner, ain't no way
I can look into those eyes of yours and eat my dinner
You think I would know better, but I ain't no thinner
You're just too much candy for a tenner

| * 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! |
