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?
Chorus
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 chevy 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
Chorus
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?
Chorus
