The Lyrics
A credit card, how sweet it sounds,
To save a wretch like me.
I once had naught, but now I've found,
Un-Imagined Luxury
Consumer debt, is very good,
Enabling shopping sprees,
They keep on raising my limit,
As long as I pay the fees
My monthly bill tops fifty thou
Sand, but it frets me not!
They will not dare try to collect,
Can't take what I ain't got!
It doesn't matter what I spend,
Nor how outrageous the cost,
I'm free to spend what I don't have
And I will not be bossed.
Amazing Debt, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
To save a wretch like me.
I once had naught, but now I've found,
Un-Imagined Luxury
Consumer debt, is very good,
Enabling shopping sprees,
They keep on raising my limit,
As long as I pay the fees
My monthly bill tops fifty thou
Sand, but it frets me not!
They will not dare try to collect,
Can't take what I ain't got!
It doesn't matter what I spend,
Nor how outrageous the cost,
I'm free to spend what I don't have
And I will not be bossed.
Amazing Debt, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
