[INTRO]
“shhh… bills go up… jokes go down… let’s make it funny…”
[VERSE 1]
Every year they raise the price like it’s climbing up a tree,
I check my wallet — it squeaks like “bro, don’t look at me.”
I call them up, they panic fast, like “uhh… let’s talk it out,”
Suddenly the price drops down — magic! — what’s that all about?
(“all about… all about…”)
(“yeah—drop it!”)
[VERSE 2]
They treat my budget like a trampoline — bounce it every year,
But when I dial their number, oh, the discounts reappear.
It’s like they fear my ringtone, like it’s thunder from above,
Suddenly they’re generous — “We can lower it, my love.”
(“my love… my love…”)
(“that’s right!”)
[CHORUS 1]
Why’s the price so high till I call you?
Why’s the bill a mountain till I stall you?
Every year you climb, then fall —
I just ring, and you drop it all.
Thanks a lot… oh thanks a lot…
You charge like kings, then cut the cost.
(“cut the cost… cost… cost…”)
(“mmm‑hmm!”)
[VERSE 3]
Your pricing chart’s a rollercoaster — up, up, up, then whoosh,
But only when I call you, like I’m pushing some big red push.
You act like numbers float in space, drifting where they please,
Till I show up and gravity says “drop those fees.”
(“drop those fees… fees…”)
[VERSE 4]
You raise the cost like helium — ballooning in the sky,
But when I call, you’re suddenly shy: “Oh… maybe we were high.”
You melt like butter in the sun, your numbers drip and drop,
I swear your calculator screams, “Please make this madness stop!”
(“stop… stop…”)
(“melt it down!”)
[CHORUS 2]
Why’s the price so high till I call you?
Why’s the bill a mountain till I stall you?
Every year you climb, then fall —
I just ring, and you drop it all.
Thanks a lot… oh thanks a lot…
You charge like kings, then cut the cost.
(“cut the cost… cost…”)
[VERSE 5]
Now here we are in minor key — the drama’s setting in,
Your yearly price hike circus is a never‑ending spin.
But when I call, you crumble fast, like sandcastles in rain,
You whisper, “We can lower it…” — oh, here we go again.
(“again… again…”)
(“every time!”)
[FINAL CHORUS]
Why’s the price so high till I call you?
Why’s the bill a mountain till I stall you?
Every year you climb, then fall —
I just ring, and you drop it all.
Thanks a lot… oh thanks a lot…
You charge like kings, then cut the cost.
Thanks a lot… oh thanks a lot…
Your price goes up — my call says STOP.
(“stop… stop… stop…”)
(“bring it down!”)
[OUTRO]
“shhh… next year… call me sooner…”
