In My Account

I get a warm feeling inside
Each time I see those numbers rise
In my account, in my account.

I feel a real sense of pride
Each time the stack goes up in size
In my account, in my account.

I've got a sack full of promises,
The competition has been shook to bits,
It's put a smile on the teller's face all right.
I've got a bag full of copper and bronze.
Can't you hear the jangling of twos and ones?
We're gonna eat at the sushi bar tonight.

I have a wide, wide smile
Each time I add to the stockpile
In my account, in my account.

Yes, there's a cool karmic law
Which says the good you do puts more
In your account, in your account.

I've got a sack full of IOU's,
The competition's crying at the news,
It's put a smile on the teller's face all right.
I've got a bag full of copper and bronze.
Can't you hear the jangling of twos and ones?
We're gonna eat at the sushi bar tonight.
