The Mystery of the Disappearing Loans

It was morning and his face was red with fury But really he just wished he was alone The sold sign on his house didn't bring no money Took a loan to pay a loan and lost that home Fighting back the boundaries of the projects He lost the last "white-collar" that he had The rent is now exactly what he's making And grocery stores don't let you run a tab The bankers say it's weird that he's not bothered When negatives have stepped inside the math But since he can't afford to take a shower Threats of tarnished credit make him laugh
