[Verse] A penny for your thoughts they say But thoughts ain't worth a dime today The bank is full of empty heads [Chorus] Common sense is the rarest of currencies Spent like gold but hoarded by fools The market's dry on decency [Verse 2] They trade in gossip not in grace Stacking lies in a briefcase The vault is locked with no key in sight [Bridge] Oh flip the coin but it won’t land Heads or tails just slips your hand The wealth you seek's in the lost and found [Chorus] Common sense is the rarest of currencies Spent like gold but hoarded by fools The market's dry on decency [Outro] So I'll keep mine in a secret chest Spend it wisely Leave the rest Common sense It’s the treasure we missed
