Interest Rate (By Kimmy Holmes, My Daughter)

The interest rate is fallin
But I ain't talkin money... darlin
What I got in mind is always free
I don't care if  Wallstreet crashes
Long as I can find them matches
To light that fire that used to burn for me
I run around in see thru teddies
An indication that I'm ready 
But you only got eyes for that damn TV
Look around and see what you been missin
While you been busy makin all that dough
My heart is broke and Lord it needs a fixin
You may be rich but your Love is mighty poor
The interest rate is fallin
But I ain't talkin money
Darlin, when you ever gonna notice me?
