Well I Don't Know So Many Things But I Know What's Been Goin' On We're Only Putting In A Little To Get Rid Of A Lot That's Wrong And If We Had A Nickel For Each Time That We've Been Put On We'd All Be Their Nickel Man And We'd Sing A Nickel Song You Know They're Only Putting In A Nickel And They Win A Dollar Song Oh, Yeah, They're Only Putting In A Little To Get Rid Of A Lot That's Wrong Oh, They're Only Putting In A Nickel To Win A Dollar Song
