Pennies Everywhere!
I bought a foreclosure
This should be great
I'm always finding coinage
It must be my fate
In the kitchen drawers
I find me some pennies
Why can't I be lucky
And find a stack of twenties?
I sweep out the closets
And look, there's some more
It's like a treasure hunt
And less like a chore
The change is adding up
Oh it's like I'm so rich
But I won't get wealthy
So that's quite a glitch
Pennies in the bathroom
Pennies in the attic
Every room I go in
It's quite problematic
Pennies on the shelves
Come raining down on me
Pulling down the top shelf
I get a bunch for free
Pennies by the front door
Pennies by the back
I've found enough pennies
To fill up a sack
I find so many pennies
Now and then a dime
Where's my bag of hundreds?
Now that'd be sublime!

You're just a money magnet and a talented poet.

Back when I was renting I found pennies from the previous tenant.

We did away with our penny, so no longer find these treasures when cleaning/renovating. No one has replaced them with fivers or twenties yet.
