I owe, I owe, I owe yes this I know
How do I catch up?
I don't know, know, know
Can't you give me a break?
not today, today, today
But I don't understand why my bill is so high
It's because you haven't paid, paid, paid
I fell on hard times, can't you help
I lost my job, job, job
I just made a payment you shut me off anyway
I'm sorry sir it just wasn't enough, enough, enough
How can my fifty dollars not be enough it's all I have left
Well sir it's been a year since your last payment, payment, payment
what do I need to do to restore my service?
Pay your bill, bill, bill
I need an extension, I don't have enough money
sir is there a medical condition in your home?
yes my seeing eye dog has cancer
I'm sorry sir but that medical condition doesn't count
But I don't understand, he's part of the family
I'm really sorry but he's not human
