clink.

[VOICE A] So here's your allowance, kid! [VOICE B] Oh boy, oh boy — how much? [VOICE A] One shiny penny, fair and square! [VOICE B] ...One? That's not enough!

[VOICE B] Can't buy gum. Can't buy juice. Can't buy half a thing! [VOICE A] It's all I've got! [VOICE B] One copper coin? That won't buy... anything!

It's PALTRY! PAWL-tree! Meager, tiny, small! Paltry penny, all alone, Can barely buy at all!

clink.

[VOICE B] I shook the piggy bank real hard, [VOICE A] And what came out? [VOICE B] ...one cent. [VOICE A] Well, save it up! [VOICE B] For HOW long, though? [VOICE A] ...About a hundred years, I meant.

It's PALTRY! PAWL-tree! Meager, tiny, small! Paltry penny, all alone, Can barely buy at all!

clink... clink...

[VOICE B] Can I at least get a raise? [VOICE A] ...Sure. Here's a second penny.

[VOICE B] ...Still paltry.
