Circumstance has forced my hand
I count every penny and I watch where it goes
I'm dropping my standards so that I can buy more
Money's rare there's none to be found
Even my trousers are giving me pain
Excuse my shoes they don't quite fit
I'm on a low budget, I'm a cut price person in a low budget land
I'm on a low budget, low budget, low budget
So don't think that I'm tight if I don't buy a round
Yeah, I'm on a low budget, I thought you said that
I'm on a low budget
I'm on a low budget, I'm a cut price person in a low budget land
Low budget sure keeps me on my toes
They squeeze me so tight so I can't take no more
I used to suck cigars but now I suck polo mints
Money's scarce and that ain't funny
I'm on a low budget, what did you say?
Times are hard but we'll all survive
I just got to learn to economize
They're a special offer and they hurt me a bit
I'm not cheap you understand
We're in a low budget film where nothing can last
Yes, I'm on a low budget, I thought you said that
I'm on a low budget
Millionaires are things of the past
I'm shopping at Woolworth and low discount stores
Yeah, I'm on a low budget, I thought you said that
Art takes time, time is money
We're all on our uppers, we're all going skint
They're size 28 but I take 34
I'm on a low budget, what did you say?
I'm on a low budget, I'm a cut price person in a low budget land
To be a cut price person in a low budget land
They were reduced in a sale so I shouldn't complain
I'm just a cut price person in a low budget land
I'm on a low budget, what did you say?
