lyrics
(a coin jar spills on the counter) (whoo!) My wallet's just a photograph Of money I once knew But the strings are swelling on my behalf And baby, so are you (so are you!) The landlord called it Tuesday We're calling it a show (here we go, here we go) Broke is just a rhythm Once you let the bassline know Rent day disco! (owe it all!) Rent day disco! (dance anyway!) Can't afford the floor but we own the wall Rent day disco! (spin it now!) Rent day disco! Richest broke folks at the ball (whoo! pay it in moves!) We split one plate of dollar noodles Candlelit — the power's out You waltzed me past the pile of bills And kissed away my doubt (the fuse box hums back on) Rent day disco! (owe it all!) Rent day disco! (dance anyway!) Can't afford the floor but we own the wall Rent day disco! (spin it now!) Rent day disco! First of the month, we shimmy Fifth of the month, we glide (snap, snap) They can bill me for the ceiling But they can't invoice my stride (never! never!) Rent day disco! (owe it ALL!) Rent day disco! (dance anyway!) Can't afford the floor but we own the wall Rent day disco! Rent day disco! (keep the change, keep the groove) (whoo!)
