When I was no more than this high,
not a shed of experience in sight,
every single precious Friday,
two shiny banknotes would come my way,
I guess I'd put at least one in savings,
and then spend the other on all my cravings.
Why not? I've just been paid,
thank you sir I'll take them today!
I'm not too broke and boy I'm stoked to have these.
So every weekend I would spend,
shoes and books and coloured pens,
but prioritisation was definitely key,
what did I want and what did I need,
yes I'd always save some just in case,
while munching happily on strawberry laces.
Why not? I've just been paid,
thank you sir I'll take them today!
I'm not too broke and boy I'm stoked to these.
A few years passed and up you grew,
it was time to say goodbye to little rooms,
more than two notes were coming your way,
but you'd be spending more than what you were paid.
My favourite band is coming to town,
tickets are on sale and time is running out,
should I save or should I spend,
adulthood's too difficult to comprehend.
But Dodie, Dodie can't you see,
you've always managed money so perfectly,
save and spend just like you have been,
it's not as scary as you might be thinking,
prioritise and save away,
you'll still have some left to see me play.
Why not? I've just been paid, thank you sir I'll take them today!
I'm not too broke and boy I'm stoked to have these.
