Oh the traffic outside is frightful,
but the sales are so delightful,
and since we’ve got three days to go,
spend the dough, spend the dough, spend the dough
The prices are quickly dropping,
and my credit card is popping
my checking account is low,
spend the dough, spend the dough, spend the dough
If the food budget is too tight,
how we’ll hate eating ramen and corn,
but if this card balance is right,
we’ll burn bills to keep us warm
My good sense is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we’re still gift buying,
But, as long as you share the woe,
spend the dough, spend the dough, spend the dough
