House Rent Jump Songtext
von Peter Case

Happy birthday Mr. Mann
Aw, you hit the numbers big
Tomorrows it′s back to the hard rock pile
But tonight you're really gonna powder your wig

Everybody have a can of beer on me
See that one legged fellow dance
Aw, shake, break it, crack it like an egg
It′s never too late for some mad romance

It's a free country but it sure ain't cheap
Up to your ankles well, you′re in too deep
The party′s over and the money's spent
Now here comes Monday and we ain′t got rent

House rent jump

Plant a big kiss on your brown eyed boy
That's what I′m talkin' about
Now hold it still ′til you freeze it dry
Don't move a muscle or you'll blow sky high


There′s people in the kitchen I ain′t seen before
This place all balled a bunch
The pad's fillin′ in all midnight to six
People sportin' feathered hats and such

It′s a free country but it sure ain't cheap
Up to your ankles well, you′re in too deep
The party's over and the money's spent
Now here comes Monday and we ain′t got rent

House rent jump
House rent jump
House rent jump

They′re tappin' the phone like a cider keg
And the juice is runnin′ down the floor
And here comes a girl in a submarine
Wearin' a green dress like a dinosaur

It′s a free country but it sure ain't cheap
Up to your ankles well, you′re in too deep
The party's over and the money's spent
Now here comes Monday and we ain′t got rent

House rent jump
House rent jump
House rent jump
Aw, tell Donald Trump
