Simple Economics Lyrics - Winners Never Quit - Pedro The Lion

The volunteers were tired 

Heads were hanging low 

The news had spoiled their appetite 

For stuffing envelopes 

Twelve points was an awful lot to be down in the polls 

With only two weeks to go 

Shouldering the phone 

Loosening his tie 

His running mate on pricks and pins 

Hovering beside 

The candidate wrote furiously as if to save his life 

Then hung up the phone and spoke with great conviction 

When you're nothing but a boyfriend 

Dangling by a thread 

Keep in mind the bottom line 

Diamonds are a girls best friend 

Inches from the goal 

One thing on his mind 

To get behind her desk and make 

Some big decisions 

Power can be such a tease, you're always wanting more 

It's good to know that just like sex it can be paid for 

When you're nothing but a boyfriend 

Dangling by a thread 

Keep in mind the bottom line 

Diamonds are a girls best friend
