Frank Zappa - Can't Afford No Shoes

[Intro]
Heh-heh-heh...

Have you heard the news?
(What news? Oo-whatta-news!)
Can't afford no shoes
(Ow! Get a deal on tape!)
Have you heard the news?
(Ah- News? Can't afford a paper!)
Can't afford no shoes
(Wry-ya-hi)

Went to buy some cheap detergent
Some emergent nation
Got my load
Got my load
Got my toad
That I stowed

Well, well
Hey lawdy mama
Can't afford no shoes
Maybe there's a bundle of rags that I could use
Hey anybody
Can you spare a dime?
If you're really hurtin', a nickel would be fine
Hey everybody
Nothin' we can buy
Chump Hare Rama, ain't no good to try
Recession
Depression

[Instrumental Break]

Whoa, whoa
Hey lawdy mama
Can't afford no shoes
Maybe there's a bundle of rags that I could use
Hey anybody
Can you spare a dime?
If you're really hurtin', a nickel would be fine
Hey everybody
Nothin' we can buy
Chump Hare Rama, ain't no good to try
Recession
Depression
