Forget Me!

Forget me, I'm only poor! And the poor don't do anything! So don't give me help! Don't even think of me! I'll just sit here! And I'll die, I guess! Oh man, we're poor! And Forget me too, I'm only elderly! And the elderly take up space! So don't give us help! Don't even offer it! We'll just go live in Florida, I guess! Ah, getting old is a drag! And Forget me also! I'm only orphaned! And orphans need to be shackled! So don't shed a tear! Don't even think! We'll just sit back And exist, I guess! Our parents are gone, party all the time! And Forget me, please! I'm only challenged! And we don't do nothin' right! So forget about us, lock us up! Don't even cry for us! We'll just sit here And drool, I guess! ......Huh? And finally! Forget me! I'm only reason! And reason is crazy! So forget about me, just be dumb! Don't even wonder why! I'll just walk right out the door and I'll head for the hills, I guess! Forget about us, we're nothing useful Don't even think about it, just sit back We don't do much, and we cost so much money Just cut us loose, we can take it, be a man!
