'Cause Cheap Is How I Feel

It's the kind of night that's so cold, when you spit
 It freezes before it hits the ground
 And when a bum asks you for a quarter, you give a dollar
 If he's out tonight, he must be truly down
 And I'm searching all the windows for a last minute present
 To prove to you that what I said was real
 For something small and frail and plastic, baby
 'Cause cheap is how I feel
 Half moon in the sky tonight
 Bright enough to come up with an answer
 To the question, "Why is it that every time I see you
 My love grows a little stronger?"
 But your memory leaves my stomach churning
 Feeling like a lie about to be revealed
 But I'll hoard all this to myself
 'Cause cheap is how I feel
 ♪
 It's not the smell in here that gets to me, it's the lights
 I hate the shadows that they cast
 And the sound of clinking bottles is the one sure thing
 I'll always drag with me from my past
 I think I'll find a pair of eyes tonight, to fall into
 And maybe strike a deal
 Your body for my soul, fair swap
 'Cause cheap is how I feel
