Lyrics
He's the great convincer
He 'll rob you of your will
Steal the last free moments of your free time
And send you the bill.
He's so confident and dedicated
As he buys your interest in the deal
Remember when he said it
Son you got good credit
How happy it made you feel.
Gimme, gimme, gimme five, Gimme ten
And I'll do anything for you
And I will save up all my money
So that someday, I can be convincing too.
He's the Great Convincer
He's got the power in the palm of his hand
Makes no cents to argue with a powerful man
He's got pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
Halves and dollars he's got money orders
He's got rubles and francs, shilling and yen
And he banks on those friends who stand convinced
And want to be convinced again.
Gimme, gimme, gimme five, Gimme ten
And I'll do anything for you
And I will save up all my money
So that someday, I can be convincing too.
The price is right so come on down
He's the most convincing cat in town
He's got pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
So step up people, place your orders
He's got rubles and francs, He's got shillin, he's got yen
And he banks on those friends who stand convinced
And want to be convinced again.
Gimme, gimme, gimme five, Gimme ten
And I'll do anything for you
And I will save up all my money
So that someday, I can be convincing yea
I can convince you!
Gimme, gimme, something
And I will give it to you!
