Dollar Short

They says she's so cru-el I think she's a jewel And a rare one at that A drop-dead beauty in a green felt hat Met her at a sports bar You'd better have a sports car If you wish to impress A pageant queen in a designer dress I make a decent living, but I need to make more If I ever want to get beyond a foot in the door If I was more of a man than a mouse I might not end up living in the poor house It's oh so frustratin' I think that we're datin' But she says "we're just friends" Then off she goes in her Mercedes Benz And I drive a Ford and I can't afford To buy her things when she's feeling bored My billfold's empty and my credit is maxed Now I know why it's called a luxury tax It's getting chaotic This drama episodic And I just want to flee So here I go on one, two, three Four, five, I'm still here I have to be near her I guess I'm just a sap A puppy lying in her Vera Wang lap I'm just a dollar short I'm just a dollar short I'm just a dollar short I'm just a dollar short
