Charge Plates and Credit Cards

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

Worked hard so many years to get my references together

Paid all my bills right on time and then my friends, they told me better

I applied for Master Charge, a Diners Club, and a Visa

And now I'm buying everything in sight, I hear they're selling la Mona Lisa

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

American Express became my green and white and black lover

Then one morning, it turned to gold and took good care of me like big brother

When the Master bills came in, I reevaluated my spending

And now I've borrowed an assumed name to see if any banks are still lending

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far

With my charge plates and credit cards, making my life hard

With my charge plates and credit cards, I know I can go far
