Lyrics:
Come on baby, leave some change behind.
She was a bitch, but I don’t care.
She brought our food out on time,
and wore a funky barrette in her hair.

Lyrics:
...leave some change behind.
She was a bitch, but good enough to leave some change.
Everybody’s good enough for some change.
The girl’s got family, she needs cash
To buy aspirin for her pain.
Everybody’s good enough for some change.
(Play two times, then play):

Lyrics:
Come on baby, leave some change behind.
She was a bitch, but good enough to leave some change.
Everybody’s good enough for some change.
We all get the flu, we all get AIDS.
We’ve got to stick together after all.
Everybody’s good enough for some change.
Some fucking change!
(Repeat Fig. 1 one time)
Lyrics:
Come on baby!

I am really not sure about this part at all; this is the way it sounds played to me
an effect(s) added to it. Again, I am not sure so it may or may not be off. Please judge accordingly.
