A Penny For Your Thoughts lyrics

The costs of some metals are rising high Pure copper pennies are hard to come by The cost to mint them is more than they're worth New coin collectors are now coming to birth Flip a penny listen for That distinctive ring you have scored Look at the date before 83 Pure copper is golden in your penny A one cent coin for thoughts in your mind Melting some of them would be a crime According to a mandate from the US Mint Just as we can't deface bills the BEP Prints The official word for penny is a cent The smallest unit of measure of money spent Because of their metal they are valued more People want them now more than before
