Prices Are a Language

[SELLERS] Sellers say: Too much lemonade today — Drop the price, drop the price, or it all goes down the drain

[BUYERS] Buyers say: The sky is gray today — We'll pay a little, a little, or we'll walk away

[PRICE] Price says: DOWN — go down — go down — A QUARTER for a cup — 'til somebody picks one up

[SELLERS] Sellers say: A heatwave hit, the line's a mile — Raise the price, raise the price, 'til only the patient smile

[BUYERS] Buyers say: We are SO thirsty today — We'll pay a lot, a lot, for one cold cup

[PRICE] Price says: UP — go up — go up — TWO DOLLARS for a cup — 'til the line shrinks up

[ALL] PRICE TELLS YOU WHAT'S SCAIRCE! A NUMBER ON A CARDBOARD SIGN — PRICE TELLS YOU WHAT'S SCAIRCE!

[PRICE] Price says: I'm the handshake in the air, the message between strangers who never even speak

[ALL] PRICE TELLS YOU WHAT'S SCAIRCE! A NUMBER ON A CARDBOARD SIGN — PRICE TELLS YOU WHAT'S SCAIRCE!

[SELLERS] Sellers say: We listen. [BUYERS] Buyers say: We listen. [PRICE] Price says: I'm the language that we share — without a single word in the air
