Mike Loves His Money

Mike Loves His Money By Elton Camp To Mike, money means more than anything Its possession, so much delight does bring Even as a child, his allowance he held back Of a developing miser, such a thing did smack The most satisfaction he ever could know Was to eagerly watch his bank balance grow Other boys made money a fast car to buy It was Mike’s holdings that made him sigh He made it through college without debt Then to make real money he was all set Each month, he spend only a tiny amount For it was so much fun his cash to count When a wife and child finally came along It was only to him the money did belong Basic necessities he was unwilling to provide In a run-down shack he made them reside Finally, his wife and child got their fill On the marriage, she put the big chill Mike’s family all now have gone He counts his money, but all alone Though real pleasure in his life he does lack He hugs his money, but it doesn’t hug back
