Текст песни Seven and a Half Cents - Doris Day

I figured it out
I figured it out
With a pencil and a pad I figured it out!
Seven and a half cents doesn't buy a hell of a lot,
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing!
But give it to me every hour,
Forty hours every week,
And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
I figured it out {He figured it out!}
I figured it out, {He figured it out!}
With a pencil and a pad, I figured it out!
Only five years from today!
Only five years from today!
I can see it all before me!
Only five years from today!
Five years! Let's see.that's 260 weeks, times forty hours every week
And roughly two and a quarter hours overtime
At time and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly. $852.74!
That's enough for me to get
An automatic washing machine,
A years supply of gasoline,
Carpeting for the living room,
A vacuum instead of a blasted broom,
Not to mention a forty-inch television set!
So, although seven and a half cents doesn't buy a heck of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour, forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
I figured it out, {she figured it out!}
I figured it out, {She figured it out!}
Only ten years from today
Only ten years from today
I can see it, clear as daylight
Only ten years from today!
Ten years! Let's see, that's 520 weeks, times forty hours every week
And roughly two and a quarter hours overtime
At time and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly. $1705.48!
That's enough for me to buy
A trip to France across the seas
A motorboat and water skis
Maybe even a foreign car
A charge account at the corner bar
Not to mention a scrabble board with letters made of gold!
So, although seven and a half cents doesn't buy a heck of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour
Forty hours every week
And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
We figured it out, {They figured it out!}, {They figured it out!}
We figured it out, {With a pencil and a pad they figured it out}
Only twenty years from today
Only twenty years from today
I can see it like a vision
Only twenty years from today
Twenty years! Let's see.
That's 1040 weeks, times forty hours every week
And roughly two and a quarter hours overtime
At time and a half for overtime! Comes to exactly. $3411.96!
Wow!
That's enough for me to be
A sultan in a taj mahal
In every room a different doll
I'll have myself a buying spree
I'll buy a pajama factory
Then I could end up having Old Man Hasler work for me!
So, although seven and a half cents doesn't buy a heck of a lot
Seven and a half cents doesn't mean a thing
But give it to me every hour, forty hours every week,
And that's enough for me to be living like a king!
