Corky Stasiak - Cheapskates lyrics

I have been a washer up And he has been a scrubber up And I've seen him a pickin' up Dog ends in the rain And he has never read a book Though I told him to take a look He lifted his pool hall cue For another game But it isn't no modern miracle That we found the golden rule What you can't buy, ya' gotta steal And what ya' say can't steal ya' better leave I don't like to hang about In this lonely room 'Cause London is for going out And tryin' to hear a tune But people come pouncin' up to me And say, "What are you doing here You're supposed to be a star Not a cheapskate bleeding queer?" Like a load of rats from a sinkin' ship You slag us down to save your hip But don't give me the benefit of your doubt Because I'll bite it off and spit it out We're cheapskates anything'll do We're cheapskates what are we supposed to do? And we can rock, hey hey let's roll And we can walk, and do the stroll We're cheapskates, anything'll do We're cheapskates, what are we supposed to do? (?) Just because we're in a group You all think we're stinkin' rich And we all got a'model girls Sheddin' every stitch And you think the c**aine's flowin' Like a river up our noses And every sea will part for us Like the red one did for Moses Well I hope ya' make it one day Just like you always said ya' would some day But I'll get out my money and make a bet That I'll be seein' down the Launderette We're cheapskates, anything'll do We're cheapskates what are we supposed to do?
