The Mountain Range Blues

I really love you baby
Try never to forget
Gonna give you all I have
My mountain range of debt

The Machu Pichu of misfortune
The Rushmore of deals gone wrong
The McKinley of bad investments
To list ‘em all would take too long…

We can eat Ramen after waking
And every other night
With my bulk dried Italian spices
We can do it up just right

We’ll pick out the finest produce
Just a bit beyond the date
In the bin behind the Wholefoods
Look—organic seedless grapes!!

The Kilimanjaro of credit fees
The Everest of earnings gone away
The Fuji of frozen assets…
Let’s take a mountain holiday…

We don’t have any Cadillac
Can’t afford no corvette
Could a vintage Yugo carry us over
This mountain range of debt?

But we’re livin’ high on love babe
We won’t have no regrets
We’ll look down on the world from the highest peaks
Of my mountain range of debt.
