The Lyrics
There they go a'charging
You hear the cash drawers ring?
They're running up a bill
That will make their husbands bring
All their savings and bonds
Stock and options will be gone
They'll regret that they ever got
A plastic credit card
Cause the plastic is ruining their year
They stayed in line for hours
As they go from store to store
They're filling up their minivan
And coming back for more
They enjoy all they do
And they love their credit too
There's no question that brand new
Things will make them smile
But they stay new for such a little while
They've got their Mastercard and Visa
Always close at hand
Their credit line has been increased
To over fifty grand
And they buy and they buy
And they never reason why
Cause their hubby has it covered
Just like he did last year
Yes, it's covered like it was last year
Yeah, they do this every Christmas
And he pays for it all year
You hear the cash drawers ring?
They're running up a bill
That will make their husbands bring
All their savings and bonds
Stock and options will be gone
They'll regret that they ever got
A plastic credit card
Cause the plastic is ruining their year
They stayed in line for hours
As they go from store to store
They're filling up their minivan
And coming back for more
They enjoy all they do
And they love their credit too
There's no question that brand new
Things will make them smile
But they stay new for such a little while
They've got their Mastercard and Visa
Always close at hand
Their credit line has been increased
To over fifty grand
And they buy and they buy
And they never reason why
Cause their hubby has it covered
Just like he did last year
Yes, it's covered like it was last year
Yeah, they do this every Christmas
And he pays for it all year
