composed after a Thousandaires show at Thai Joe's
with only $1 USD in pocket

lyrics

Landlord banging on the door haranguing me for rent
What rent? I ask – I’m poor – I haven’t got a cent
I’ve joined the bulging ranks of the empty wallets
You might call it destitution but do you know what I call it?

Happiness
Peace of mind
Tranquility
Poverty

I’m down to my very last dollar
Counting out pennies, simplifying recipes
Are you down with me? We lead, we follow
I’ve lost the lot but I’ve taken back the rest of me

Friends I thought were friends have fallen off the earth
The ground they were standing on opened up and gave new birth
To friends who want me, not my things or my appliances
Goodbye to the old, hello to new alliances and…

Happiness
Peace of mind
Tranquility
Poverty

I’m down to my very last dollar
Counting out pennies, simplifying recipes
Are you down with me? We lead, we follow
I’ve lost the lot but I’ve taken back the rest of me
