Dime Lyrics

edit | print

In the brown shag carpet of a cheap motel
In the dark and dusty corner by the TV shelf
Is a small reminder of a simpler time
When a crumpled up pair of trousers cost a brand new dime
Well you ask me how I made it through and how my mint condition could belong to you
When I'm on the ground I roll through town
I'm a president you don't remember getting kicked around
I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine I'm freshly minted
I am determined not to be dented
By a car or by a plane or anything not yet invented
I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine
In the hiss and rumble of the freeway sounds
As the afternoon commuters drive their cars around
There's a ringle jingle near the underpass
There's a sparkle near the fast food garbage and roadside trash
I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine I'm freshly minted
I'm silver-plated I'm underrated
You won't even pick me up because I'm not enough for a local phone call
I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine
I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine
I'm a dime
I'm fine
And I shine

In the brown shag carpet of a cheap motel  
In the dark and dusty corner by the TV shelf  
Is a small reminder of a simpler time  
When a crumpled up pair of trousers cost a brand new dime  
Well you ask me how I made it through and how my mint condition could belong to you  
When I'm on the ground I roll through town  
I'm a president you don't remember getting kicked around  
I'm a dime  
I'm fine  
And I shine I'm freshly minted  
I am determined not to be dented  
By a car or by a plane or anything not yet invented  
I'm a dime  
I'm fine  
And I shine  
In the hiss and rumble of the freeway sounds  
As the afternoon commuters drive their cars around  
There's a ringle jingle near the underpass  
There's a sparkle near the fast food garbage and roadside trash  
I'm a dime  
I'm fine  
And I shine I'm freshly minted  
I'm silver-plated I'm underrated  
You won't even pick me up because I'm not enough for a local phone call  
I'm a dime  
I'm fine  
And I shine  
I'm a dime  
I'm fine  
And I shine  
I'm a dime  
I'm fine  
And I shine
