Cant Afford To Look This Cheap

F
Well, I want to try and hold my head up high
In this busted-up Pinto truck
                         C
conversion between the broken
concrete and the cloudy sky
           A#
Well, you have to make an effort with me
         C                         A#
Can you make it look like you're chauffeuring me?
F                             C           F
There's enough gas to get us home now if we glide

When we took this job I thought
that you knew the deal
I told the boss we had a Mercedes-Benz but
all we got in our yard is a steering wheel
Well, I can't borrow this tuxedo much longer
Well, we might have to cut and sell your long hair
I don't mind you wearing a wig but I won't steal

Припев:
A#
Well, honey, we can't afford to look this cheap
We need to make it look like we're high class,
          C
so we'll haul ourself on, we can't be beat
        A#
I can't help but wonder, this time next year,
             F                       A#
will we be drinking Dom Perignon or reheated beer?
      F                  C                   F
Well, honey, we can't afford to look this cheap.

We have to keep up appearances as long as we can
There's too much to lose,
our social status, well,
our ice machine, and our ceiling fan
And if they find out that
we ain't real songwriters
That we Go Dutch on cigarette lighters
We're going to lose the paradise
that's in our hands

Припев

Got an image to live up to here
In the best motel on Imposter Street
While the Joneses are waltzing off to dinner
We're gluing old lottery tickets together
Trying to make us a winner
Well, honey, we can't afford to look this cheap
