lyrics

There was boy i knew who was offered a dollar
But he took five pennies instead
Because the dollar was just a lone piece of paper
But the coins jingled in his hand
And though he couldn't buy bread or a cup of water
He was entertained all day long
With the pennies in the palm of a balled up fist
While his stomach just grumbled this song

Give me more of less my friend
You can have the rest my friend
Give me more of less my friend
Cuz more is what i need
Give me more of less my friend
I dont need the best my friend
Give me more of less my friend
Cuz more is what i need

There was a girl i knew who was offered a wedding
But she took a party instead
Because the wedding was just a ring and piece of paper
But the party rang in her head
And though she never found love outside of a bedroom
She was entertained all night long
With a ring in the palm of a balled up fist
While her body remembered this song

Give me more of less my friend
You can have the rest my friend
Give me more of less my friend
Cuz more is what i need
Give me more of less my friend
I dont need the best my friend
Give me more of less my friend
Cuz more is what i need

Give me more of less my friends
You can keep the best my friends
Give me more of less my friends
Cuz this is why we bleed
Give me more of less my friends
We dont need the best my friends
Give me more of less my friends
I cannot conceive

Give me more of less my friends
We dont want the best my friends
Give me more of less my friends
Cuz more is what I need
Give me more of less my friends
You can have the rest my friends
Give me more of less my friends
Cuz more is what I need
