Prompt / Lyrics
I showed up with my hopes sky‑high, First date, I swore this was my guy. He waved the menu, said, “Let’s see What’s cheapest here for you and me?” He said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you far,” I thought he meant he had a car. “Let’s take a spin,” he beamed with pride, The elevator was my ride. He’s cheap, he’s tight with every bill, Saves every coin, yet loves me still. He may not shower me with gold, But his heart’s the richest thing I hold. He counts the pennies in his jar, Says walking beats a taxi car. He swears that love’s not bought with things, But counts the cost of onion rings. He buys the off‑brand every time, Says, “Same as name‑brand, saves a dime!” I roll my eyes, but then I grin, He’s frugal, not a mortal sin. He’s cheap, he’s tight with every bill, Saves every coin, yet loves me still. He may not shower me with gold, But his heart’s the richest thing I hold. He parks three blocks away to save, Says, “Parking fees? I will not cave.” We hike the distance, wind and rain, He calls it “cardio with gain.” He saves his nickels and his dimes, Says, “All that glitters wastes your time.” I miss the sparkle here and there, But I still stay, I know he cares. He’s cheap, he’s tight with every bill, Saves every coin, yet loves me still. He may not shower me with gold, But his heart’s the richest thing I hold. He’s cheap, he’s tight with every bill, Saves every coin, yet loves me still. He may not shower me with gold, But his heart’s the richest thing I hold. He’s cheap, he’s tight with every bill, Saves every coin, yet loves me still. He may not shower me with gold, But his heart’s the richest thing I hold. But his heart’s the richest thing I hold.
