Squirrel Nut Zippers - The Suits Are Picking Up the Bill lyrics

In a line at the cafe
I overheard the waitress say
"These cats is broke, I knows 'em
Throw 'em out the doors and close 'em
(Get 'em outta here) "

Spirit's sagging, funds are low
This occupation's got to go
Up pulls the limo, up goes the thrill
The suit's are picking up the bill
It's alright for them to tag along
It's just one bill they're tacking on
I'll find some way to get along

The business suit's to the rescue
So nice doing business with you

You will really ape and clown
When we realize the dough
They're shelling out for the deal
The suit's are picking up
The suit's are picking up the bill

I cannot say from where I'm standing
My friends have passed out on the landing
(Good night) guess one too many
Has left us high and dry
I'll be feeling down
'Till the suit's get back in town
