You said I wasn't worth a plug nickel
But you offered a penny for my thoughts,
So I gave you my two cents
And turned on a dime
The definition of a hustle play
No point in crying over yesterday
Don't be a nickel looking for a dime
It's always peanut butter time
Well now I've gone and done it again
Another math test was failed by me
If I had a nickel for each one,
I'd have a dollar thirty three!
I bought a paper for a nickel
I bought a pencil for a dime
but no money in the world could
ever buy me love that was never
intended to be mine.
A lady well known to be fickle
Was left all alone with a pickle
To her great delight
She found out that night
How a nickel pickle can tickle!
There once was a poet
though he didn't really know it
his words fickle but rhymed fluently
as he nickel and dimed smoothly
Too bad he blew it.
hes has a cup
it stuff
with nickel and dine
is he really blind
or playing on your mind
he can be a pain
to fine that of
BLINDMAN ON THE TRAIN
a cent, I feel puny
a nickel, I shine
and the dime you gave me
as I asked for the time
the dollar to be earned
to make a pile but not a shield.
If I had a shiny new nickel
I'd buy me another dill pickle
My wife thinks she knocked me up
Made me go pee in a cup
But pickle juice came out in a trickle
I'll loan you my own plugged nickel
if you have a red cent I may borrow
but swallow a dollar today
and you'll be passing the buck tomorrow
One cent, two cents,
Nickel and dime
Two bits, four bits,
A dollar this time.
Ship me a grasshopper
Do me a crime
Fly like a whippoorwill
O'er Anaheim.
Your vehicle's surely in a pickle
Because you, its owner, are so fickle
You claim depreciation
Never appreciation
You don't think your car's worth a plugged nickel
Tin can pan alley cat man
Nickel and dime No money blues
Also-ran derelict on the run no shoes
When was the last time
you heard "butter brickle"
or saw the hammer and sickle
I'll bet you a wooden nickel
it's about the last time
you ate a non-kosher pickle!
life is fickle
a bit like a pickle
it will cost a nickel
for a hammer and sickle
i have a freckle on my face
now give me a tickle
life is fickle
just like a pickle.
I handed toddler sour pickle
I bribed him with a shiny nickel
Took a little bite
And to my delight
His puckered face, gave me a tickle

I found myself in a real bad pickle
my lady thinks I'm cheap to the nickel,
so I told her I would spend
but she screamed, "This is the end."...
Mad at, "Your boobs droop like an icicle!"
A bright shiny quarter was rolling its way
toward a young man with large bills to pay
The nickel rolled by, ignored and shunned
~ all the young man’s accounts were dunned
You are today
Worth to you a dime,
To me a nickel
To her a penny
A house 30 million
A man a house
The past a Man
Earth the future
The future nothing.
There once was a rich man from Des Moines
Whose profile was engraved on a coin
He was so proud
He crowed out loud
It was money that kept him going.

A penny for a poem
a nickel for your thoughts
Two bits for any wisdom
that life has you taught
It's not what we know
but the deeds we have done
Knowledge earns a fee
~ when it helps someone
Just because
you think you know everything
doesn't mean you know jack xxxx
if I had a nickel
for every time you said
you were right
I think I'd be a millionaire
let's just say I'd be
with you for the money!
'A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush'
~ so is a wooden nickel

Russian flag is a hammer and sickle
Now their president is in a pickle
Down the stairs, a messy heap
Making threats he cannot keep
Vladimir Putin's not worth a nickel.

I gave the poor a nickel
who spent it on some shoes.
Then those who owned the store
had money for their dues.
The store was just a new one
and had to pay it's lease.
And I the plaza owner
took the nickel home in peace.
