Lyrics:

Cheap is small and not to steep
But best of all, cheap is cheap.
Circumstance has forced my hand
To be a cut-priced person
In a low-budget land.
Times are hard, but we’ll all survive.
I just gotta learn to economize.
I’m on a low budget!
I’m on a low budget!
I’m not cheap, you’ll understand;
I’m just a cut-price person in low-budget land.
Excuse my shoes – they don’t quite fit:
They’re a special offer and they hurt me a bit.
Even my trousers are giving me pain –
They were reduced in a sale, so I shouldn’t complain.
They squeeze me so tight so I can’t take no more!
They’re a size 28, but I take 34!
I’m on a low budget! What did you say?
Yeah, I’m on a low budget! I thought you said that.
I’m on a low budget!
I’m a cut-price person in a low-budget land.
I’m shopping at Woolworth’ and low-discount stores –
I’m dropping my standards so that I can buy more.
Low budget sure keeps me on my toes.
I count every penny and I watch where it goes.
We’re all on our uppers – we’re all goin’ skin.
I used to suck cigars, but now, I suck Polo mints.
I’m on a low budget! What did you say?
Yeah, I’m on a low budget! I thought you said that.
I’m on a low budget!
I’m a cut-price person in low-budget land
I’m on a low budget!
Low budget!
Low budget!
Art takes time.
Time is money.
Money’s scarce,
And that ain’t funny!
Millionaires are things of the past.
We’re in Low-budgetville, where nothing can last.
Money’s rare – there’s none to be found,
So don’t think that I’m tight if I don’t buy a round.
I’m on a low budget! What did you say?
Yes, I’m on a low budget! I thought you said that.
I’m on a low budget!
I’m a cut-price person in low-budget land
I’m on a low budget! Say it again.
Low budget. One more time.
Low budget.
