Al Duvall - Penny Champagne Lyrics

We're shabby gentlemen of modest means
Our canapé is a can of beans
Our chandelier is the moon and stars
Our limousine is an old boxcar
The burnt cork opera is quite the hoot
But we left our wallets in our other suit
It's New Years Eve and we're out in the rain
It's 3, 2, 1, time for penny champagne

Penny champagne, penny champagne
It'll paint your nose and varnish your brain
It beats that cola that they make with cocaine
Oh, penny champagne penny champagne
It's grеat for christening a runaway train
You'll pass out in Texas and wake up in Mainе
Oh, penny champagne

Our penthouse flat is in the subway station
Conveniently close to transportation
We stroll the avenue with all the swells
Lounge in the lobbies of the best hotels
At the temperance fountain, we tidy up
And count the money in the blind man's cup
The change is good that we work to obtain
There's just enough for some penny champagne
Penny champagne, penny champagne
It's a brand new vintage from a local domain
When you miss the feeling of a ball and a chain
Oh, penny champagne, penny champagne
There ain't no tellin' what the bottle contains
We're hardly ever gonna drink it again
We're hardly ever gonna drink it again
We're hardly ever gonna drink it again
Oh, penny champagne
Penny champagne
