 Anthony works in the grocery store

 savin' his pennies for someday

 Mama Leone left a note on the door,

 she said "Sonny, move out to the country"

 workin' too hard can give you a heart attack

 you ought to know by now

 who needs a house out in Hackensack?

 Is that what you get with your money?

 It seems such a waste of time

 if that's what it's all about

 if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

Seargent O'Leary is walkin' the beat

at night he becomes abartender

he works at Mister Cacciatore's down

on Sulliven Street

across from the medical center

he's tradin' in his Chevy for a Cadillac

you ought to know by now

and if he can't drive with a broken back

at least he can polish the fenders.

It seems such awaste of time

if that's what it's all about

if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.

You should never argue with a crazy mind

you ought to know by now

you can pay Uncle Sam with the overtime

is that all you get for your money?

It seems such awaste of time

if that's what it's all about

if that's movin' up then I'm movin' out.
