The Lyrics

I went out today and noticed that gas is now costing $4.09 a gallon. I know everybody knows the pain of high gas prices.
(HINT: When you sing the song, remember that the "$" is silent!)
It's not fine at $4.09
It's not fine at $4.09
At $4.09

Well, I went to the gas station and I started to whine
(Costs too much, costs too much, $4.09)
Because I knew there would be a time
(Costs too much, costs too much, $4.09)
When a gallon of gas would cost me $4.09
($4.09, $4.09)

(Chorus)
Costs too much, costs too much, costs too much, $4.09
Costs too much, $4.09
Costs too much, $4.09
Costs too much, $4.0
Nothin' can stop it
The price is still risin'
$4.09
$4.09

Costs too much, costs too much, ooh
Costs too much, costs too much, ooh
Costs too much, costs too much, ooh
Costs too much, costs too much

When I take it to the pump it's such a crime
(Costs too much, costs too much, $4.09)
It's costing me every single nickel and dime
(Costs too much, costs too much, $4.09)
To fill it up with gas that costs me $4.09
($4.09, $4.09)

(Repeat chorus)

$4.09
Goin' up, $5.09
Goin' up, $6.09
Goin' up, $7.09…
