Sal’s Pizza Has Sold Out to the Yuppie Scum lyrics

[Verse 1]
Not long ago it was a buck twenty-five
A buck twenty-five, a buck twenty-five
Not long ago it was a buck twenty-five
If you had a few quarters
You could still stay alive

[Chorus]
Jesus f*cking christ
Sal's Pizza went up fifty cents a slice
Jesus f*cking christ
Sal's Pizza went up fifty cents a slice

[Verse 2]
Sal said he was the best on the Lower East Side
And I used to eat there all the time
But I won't eat my pride
So long Sal, all my love is gone
You might be low and east
But now I know whose side you're on

[Chorus]
Jesus f*cking christ
Sal's Pizza went up fifty cents a slice
Jesus f*cking christ
Sal's Pizza went up fifty cents a slice
[Verse 3]
You might say "Hey, it's just pizza, don't get all bent
Why don't you sing about the idiots who pay these rents?
Or how 'bout that George f*cking Bush might be the next president?"
But don't you see, to me all that sh*t is what the pizza represents?

[Chorus]
Jesus f*cking christ
Sal's Pizza went up fifty cents a slice
Jesus f*cking christ
Sal's Pizza went up fifty cents a slice

[Verse 4]
Oh so long goodbye
Now I'm gonna have myself a cry
Another piece of my life went to hell today
And you know the reason why
