[00:00:11] The consumer they call us

[00:00:13] We're the people that buy

[00:00:15] Well everyone else is out to sell some kind of merchandise

[00:00:19] We run to the boss and tell 'em we need a bit more gold

[00:00:22] Some tax deductions later we still wind up in the hole

[00:00:27] Oh yes we are the people running in the race

[00:00:31] Buying up the bargains in the OL' marketplace

[00:00:35] Another sale on something we'll buy it while it's hot

[00:00:39] Save a lot of money spending money we don't got

[00:00:43] We save a lot of money spending money we don't got

[00:00:48] The consumer they call us

[00:00:50] We always get a fair shake

[00:00:52] We buy a fridge that doesn't freeze and a stove that doesn't bake

[00:00:56] We can't buy nothing lasting unless we get that raise in pay

[00:01:00] And they'd only charge us more for the things that cost less today

[00:01:04] The consumer they call us

[00:01:07] We're fussy what we eat

[00:01:09] We look at the price of t-bone steak and buy hamburg meat

[00:01:12] And all those fancy packages we take down from the shelf

[00:01:16] They're always full of good fresh air when they're full of nothing else

[00:01:21] Oh yes we are the people running in the race

[00:01:25] Buying up the bargains in the OL' marketplace

[00:01:29] Another sale on something we'll buy it while it's hot

[00:01:33] We save a lot of money spending money we don't got

[00:01:37] We Save a lot of money spending money we don't got

[00:01:44] The consumer they call us

[00:01:46] When the man comes in the door

[00:01:48] To give us a deal on a vaccume when we buy a rug for the floor

[00:01:52] And how do we pay the finance when the monthly bills arrive

[00:01:55] They just send down the bailiff to reposes the car we drive

[00:02:00] The consumer is what they call us we're always deep in debt

[00:02:04] From buying drawers in Discount stores to fixing the TV set

[00:02:08] We go to the bank for the money and sign for another loan

[00:02:12] And hope the lord doesn't see us stop in the tavern halfway home

[00:02:17] Oh yes we are the people running in the race

[00:02:21] Buying up the bargains in the OL' marketplace

[00:02:25] Another sale on something we'll buy it while it's hot

[00:02:28] We save a lot of money spending money we don't got

[00:02:32] We Save a lot of money spending money we don't got

[00:02:36] We Save a lot of money spending money we don't got
