Heh-heh-heh
Have you heard the news?
(News? What news?)
Can't afford no shoes

(Get a good deal on tape)
Have you heard the news?
(News? Can't afford a paper)
Can't afford no shoes

(Hi-yo-hi)
Went to buy some cheap detergent
Some emergent nation
Got my load

Got my load
That I stowed
Well, well
Hey lawdy mama

Can't afford no shoes
Maybe there's a bundle of rags
That I could use
Hey anybody

Nothin' we can buy
Chump Hare Rama, ain't no good to try
Recession
Depression
