[Doris Day - Seven and a Half Cents lyrics]
I figured it out i figured it out
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy
A hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to
Be living like a king! I figured it out
He figured it out!
I figured it out
He figured it out!
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out!
Only five years from today!
Only five years from today!
I can see it all before me!
Only five years from today!
Five years! Let's seethats 260 weeks
Times forty hours every week
And roughly two and a quarter
Hours overtime at time
And a half for overtime!
Comes to exactly $85274!
That's enough for me to get
An automatic washing machine
A years supply of gasoline
Carpeting for the living room
A vacuum instead of a blasted broom
Not to mention a forty inch television set!
So! Although!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy
A hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to
Be living like a king!
I figured it out
She figured it out!
I figured it out!
She figured it out!
Only ten years from today
Only ten years from today
I can see it, clear as daylight
Only ten years from today!
Ten years! Let's seethats 520 weeks
Times forty hours every week
And roughly two and a quarter
Hours overtime at time
And a half for overtime!
Comes to exactly $170548!
That's enough for me to buy
A trip to France across the seas
A motorboat and water skis
Maybe even a foregian car
A charge account at the corner bar
Not to mention a scrabble board
With letters made of gold!
So! Although!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy
A hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to
Be living like a king!
We figured it out!
They figured it out! They figured it out!
We figured it out!
With a pencil and a pad they figured it out
Only twenty years from today
Only twenty years from today
I can see it like a vision
Only twenty years from today
Twenty years! Let's seethats 1040 weeks
Times forty hours every week
And roughly two and a
Quarter hours overtime at
Time and a half for overtime!
Comes to exactly $341196! Wow!
That's enough for me to be
A sultan in a taj mahal
In every room a different doll!
I'll have myself a buying spree
I'll buy a pajama factory
Then I could end up having old
Man Hasler work for me!
So! Although!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy
A hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to
Be living like a king!
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy
A hell of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to
Be living like a king! I figured it out
He figured it out!
I figured it out
He figured it out!
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out!
Only five years from today!
Only five years from today!
