Cake - Dime lyrics

Album: Pressure Chief (2004)

In the brown shag carpet of a cheap motel
In the dark & 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 & how my mint condition could belong to you
When I am on the ground I roll through town
I am a president you do not remember getting kicked around
I am a dime
I am fine
And I shine I am freshly minted
I´m determined not to be dented
By a car or by a plane or anything not yet invented
I am a dime
I am fine
And I shine
In the hiss & rumble of the freeway sounds
As the afternoon commuters drive their cars around
Theres a ringle jingle near the underpass
Theres a sparkle near the fast food garbage & roadside trash
I am a dime
I am fine
And I shine I am freshly minted
I am silver-plated I am underrated
You will not even pick me up because I am not enough for a local phone call
I am a dime
I am fine
And I shine
I am a dime
I am fine
And I shine
I am a dime
I am fine
And I shine
