Pennies

(Album: The Cowsills - 1967)

Well, it seems that someone told you how to live
And to get the most from life you take, don't give
Love is just a word, something that you've heard before
With no changes, enter strangers where love used to be
And once more you're saving your Pennies for a rainy day
Counting the hours while your life slips away

In your little ivory tower it must get very cold
And you think that life can just be bought and sold
But I disagree, it means so much more to me
With no changes, enter strangers where love used to be
And once more you're saving your Pennies for a rainy day
Counting the hours while your life slips away

Will you ever learn?
Will you ever learn?
Will you ever learn? You know it's getting very late
And before you realize it, love can turn to hate

And once more you're saving your Pennies for a rainy day
Counting the hours while your life slips away

Saving you Pennies for a rainy day...
