Anthony works in the grocery store
|
Savin' his pennies for someday
|
Mama Leone left a note on the door,
|
She said,
|
"Sonny, move out to the country."
|
Workin' too hard can give me
|
A heart attack
|
You oughta know by now
|
Who needs a house out in Hackensack?
|
Is that what you get with your money?
|
|
It seems such a waste of time
|
If that's what it's all about
|
If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.
|
|
Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beat
|
At night he becomes a bartender
|
He works at Mister Cacciatore's down
|
On Sullivan Street
|
Across from the medical center
|
He's tradin' in his Checy for a Cadillac
|
You oughta know by now
|
And if he can't drive
|
With a broken back
|
At least he can polish the fenders
|
|
It seems such a waste of time
|
If that's what it's all about
|
If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.
|
|
You should never argue with a crazy mind
|
You oughta know by now
|
You can pay Uncle Sam with overtime
|
Is that all you get for your money?
|
|
It seems such a waste of time
|
If that's what it's all about
|
If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.
