Inflation is out of control
Because miners can't sell their coal
Our earth's getting warmer
But Trump is a charmer
And knows we need a deeper hole...

Inflation Sucks
A hundred dollars was more than enough
To buy all my groceries and stuff
The bagboy doesn't stock it
For it fits in my pocket
A hundred dollars for spam is too rough...

First we had ‘Pennies from Heaven’
         Then it was the ‘March of Dimes’
  
       Now the Tooth Fairy leaves five dollars
         Inflation improves life over time...

More and More of a Bank Chore
Banks have been creating quite a chore,
Always giving out credit more and more;
Always did intend;
Extend and extend;
Created inflation making us become poor.

Another is, prices are high as hell --

  Pays just a buck forty-nine --
Says he stocks up daily at Taco Bell...

"Compound interest's man's greatest invention".
But you'll be financially in trouble,
Expecting your buying power to double,
Because he never factored in for inflation....

Seems inflation is all around,
but your local poet’s in town.
Small bills are preferred;
we charge by the word.
We’ll use long ones to keep the costs down.

the Viagra he took for inflation
in search of complete satiation
but three hours in

and sought aid for elation’s deflation
