The White Stripes -
Honey We Cant Afford To Look This Cheap

CWell, I want to try and hold my head up high
In this busted-up Pinto truck
conversion between the brFoken
concrete and the cloudy sky
Well, you hfave to make an effort with me
Can you mFake it look like you're chfauffeuring me?
CThere's enough gas to get us hFome now if wCe 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:
fWell, honey, we can't afford to look this cheap
We need to make it look like we're high class,
so we'll hFaul ourself on, we can't be beat
I can't fhelp but wonder, this time next year,
will we be drCinking Dom Perignon or rfeheated beer?
Well, Choney, we can't affFord to look this cheCap.

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
