It's a Privilege to Pee piano leadsheet with chords

"Times are hard."

"Our cash is tight."

"You've got no right!"

I've heard it all before.

"Just this once" is once too much,

for once they've onced, they'll want to once once more.

I run the only toilet in this part of town,

you see, so if you've got to go,

you've got to go through me!

It's a privilege to pee.

Water's worth its weight in gold,

these days.

I No more bathrooms like the olden days.

I You come here and pay a fee

and for the privilege to pee.

Twenty years we've had the drought,

and our reservoirs have all dried up.

I take my baths now in a coffee cup.

I boil what's left of it for tea,

and it's a privilege to pee.

Twenty years we've had the pee!

The politicians in their wisdom saw that there should be a law.

The politicians taxed the toilets, and made illegal public urination

and defecation.

So, come and give your coins to me.

Write your name here in the record book.

The authorities will want to look

if you've been regular with me,

if you've paid the proper fee

for the privilege to pee.

You think you've got some kind of right?

You think you'll come in here and go for free?

Only thing you'll get is "no" for free!

I'm a bus'ness gal, you see.

I sell the privilege to pee!

The good Lord made us so we'd piss each day,

until we piss away.

The good Lord made sure that what goes in men must soon come out again,

so you're no diff'rent, then,

from lowly me.

And I think I'll charge you twice,

or better yet, have you arrested

since you prefer the law gets tested.

And in Urinetown you'll see

why it's dumb to fight with me

for the privilege to pee!
