Suits Are Picking Up The Bill - Squirrel Nut Zippers

In a line at a cafe

I overheard a waitress say

These cats is broke, I knows 'em

Through 'em out the doors and close 'em'

Still look saggy, for so low

This occupation’s got to go Up pulls the limo, up goes the thrill

The suits are picking up the bill

It’s alright for them to tag along

It’s just one bill their tagging on

I’ll find some way to get along

The business suits to the rescue

So nice doing business with you

Do we really hate the clock

When we realize that

Oh, their selling down for the deal

The suits are picking up The suits are picking up the bill

I cannot say from where I’m standing

My friends have passed out on the landing

Yes, one too many has left us high and dry

I’ve been feeling down, since the suits got back in town
