I just have to try this one. I work in accounting. So my challenge is 13 songs with lyrics that mention some accounting term. This could include banking terms, financing terms, I'll make it a broad spectrum since this is a difficult task. I can only think of two, including the first one that inspired the category. It might be a big bust, but let's see if other people may have spotted some others:
01. At Seventeen - Janis Ian "Their small-town eyes will gape at you In dull surprise when payment due exceeds accounts received At seventeen"
02. Get The Balance Right - Depeche Mode "Get the balance right, get the balance right"
03. Everything's Ruined - Faith No More "People loved him so / And helped him to grow / Everyone knew the thing that was best / Of course he must invest / A penny won't do..."
04. We Live on Borrowed Time - Barry Manilow "We live on borrowed time. No one can be sure when the loan will finally come due."
05. Ramble Tamble - CCR "There's mud in the water. Roach in the cellar. Bugs in the sugar. Mortgage on the home."
06. Cat's in the Cradle - Harry Chapin "My child arrived just the other day. He came to the world in the usual way. But there were planes to catch and bills to pay"
07. The Debitor - McAlmont and Butler "Call your creditors / When they decide that fair is fair I'll be your debitor / 'Cause you've got money to spend / See I don't move without investment..."
08. Jesus Paid the Debt - The Soul Stirrers "Jesus paid the debt a long time ago./ You know they stretched him on a tree/ On rugged Calvary/Jesus paid the debt for you and me."
09. Taxman - The Beatles "Should five percent appear too small be thankful I don't take it all 'cause I'm the taxman."
10. Money, Money, Money - ABBA "I work all night, I work all day, to pay the bills I have to pay."
11. Where You At? - Kanye West "But my credit was so pathetic, I couldn't afford a debit."
12. If You Can Afford Me - Katy Perry "If you want me there's no discount price tonight"
13. Sixteen Tons - Tennessee Ernie Ford "Ya load sixteen tons, and whaddya get? Another day older, and deeper in debt."

13 Song Titles With a Double Entendre:
A double entendre is a figure of speech or a particular way of wording that is devised to have a double meaning, of which one is typically obvious, whereas the other often conveys a message that would be too socially awkward, sexually suggestive, or offensive to state directly.
