Cheap is small and not to steep

But best of all, cheap is cheap.

Circumstance has forced my hand

To be a cut-priced person

In a low-budget land.

Times are hard, but we’ll all survive.

I just gotta learn to economize.

I’m on a low budget!

I’m on a low budget!

I’m not cheap, you’ll understand;

I’m just a cut-price person in low-budget land.

Excuse my shoes – they don’t quite fit:

They’re a special offer and they hurt me a bit.

Even my trousers are giving me pain –

They were reduced in a sale, so I shouldn’t complain.

They squeeze me so tight so I can’t take no more!

They’re a size 28, but I take 34!

I’m on a low budget! What did you say?

Yeah, I’m on a low budget! I thought you said that.

I’m on a low budget!

I’m a cut-price person in a low-budget land.

I’m shopping at Woolworth’ and low-discount stores –

I’m dropping my standards so that I can buy more.

Low budget sure keeps me on my toes.

I count every penny and I watch where it goes.

We’re all on our uppers – we’re all goin’ skin.

I used to suck cigars, but now, I suck Polo mints.

I’m on a low budget! What did you say?

Yeah, I’m on a low budget! I thought you said that.

I’m on a low budget!

I’m a cut-price person in low-budget land

I’m on a low budget!

Low budget!

Low budget!

Art takes time.

Time is money.

Money’s scarce,

And that ain’t funny!

Millionaires are things of the past.

We’re in Low-budgetville, where nothing can last.

Money’s rare – there’s none to be found,

So don’t think that I’m tight if I don’t buy a round.

I’m on a low budget! What did you say?

Yes, I’m on a low budget! I thought you said that.

I’m on a low budget!

I’m a cut-price person in low-budget land

I’m on a low budget! Say it again.

Low budget. One more time.

Low budget.
