The Lyrics
Raised the price, raised the price
in the store where the beer’s seen.
Belgian whites, swill that’s Lite…
like I’m having a bad dream.
Now I can go to this store no more…
brew connection severed.
Raised the price, raised the price.
Guess I’ll have to be clever.
Pay the price for an ice-
cold brew such as Anchor Steam?
I’m enticed by a life
of crime along with my team.
Broke in the store to glom what we’d pour,
but we weren’t too clever.
[E]vade the price? Paid the price.
Sent to court for a sentence.
in the store where the beer’s seen.
Belgian whites, swill that’s Lite…
like I’m having a bad dream.
Now I can go to this store no more…
brew connection severed.
Raised the price, raised the price.
Guess I’ll have to be clever.
Pay the price for an ice-
cold brew such as Anchor Steam?
I’m enticed by a life
of crime along with my team.
Broke in the store to glom what we’d pour,
but we weren’t too clever.
[E]vade the price? Paid the price.
Sent to court for a sentence.
