7 1/2 Cents - Doris Day (多丽丝·戴)

I figured it out

I figured it out

With a pencil and a pad I figured it out

Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot

Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing

But give it to me every hour

Forty hours every week

And that's enough for me to be living like a king

I figured it out

He figured it out

I figured it out

He figured it out

With a pencil and a pad I figured it out

Only five years from today

Only five years from today

I can see it all before me

Only five years from today

Five years let's see that's 260 weeks

Times forty hours every week

And roughly two and a quarter hours overtime at time

And a half for overtime comes to exactly $85274

That's enough for me to get

An automatic washing machine

A years supply of gasoline

Carpeting for the living room

A vacuum instead of a blasted broom

Not to mention a forty inch television set

So although

Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot

Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing

But give it to me every hour

Forty hours every week

And that's enough for me to be living like a king

I figured it out

She figured it out

She figured it out

I figured it out

With a pencil and a pad

I figured it out

Only ten years from today

Only ten years from today

I can see it clear as daylight

Only ten years from today

Ten years let's see that's 520 weeks

Times forty hours every week

And roughly two and a quarter hours overtime at time

And a half for overtime comes to exactly $170548

That's enough for me to buy

A trip to France across the seas

A motorboat and water skis

Maybe even a foreign car

A charge account at the corner bar

Not to mention a scrabble board with letters made of gold

So although I figured it out

Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot

Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing

But give it to me every hour

Forty hours every week

And that's enough for me to be living like a king

We figured it out

They figured it out

They figured it out

We figured it out

With a pencil and a pad they figured it out

Only twenty years from today

Only twenty years from today

I can see it like a vision

Only twenty years from today

Twenty years let's see that's 1040 weeks

Times forty hours every week

And roughly two and a quarter hours overtime

At time and a half for overtime comes to exactly $341196

Wow

That's enough for me to be

A sultan in a taj mahal

In every room a different doll

I'll have myself a buying spree

I'll buy a pajama factory

Then I could end up having old man Hasler work for me

So although

Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot

Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing

But give it to me every hour

Forty hours every week

And that's enough for me to be living like a king
