Free Cee Give the Man Alone a Loan

GIVE THE MAN ALONE A LOAN In all regards I am in arrears For all but tears In all regards I am bankrupt Incorrigible and corrupt I am incredibly insolvent And I avoid involvement I am oftentimes a brute And undeniably destitute This is the way I’ve lived for years In arrears Corruption corrodes my credit and more And I am patently poor I have no assets And only losing bets I have no skill With only time to kill I never qualify for a loan And no one throws me a bone For me the sky never clears Since I am in all ways always in arrears © 2012…..PHREEPOETREE ~free cee!~
