Bridging the Gap

Bridge cards aren't for everyone just those who have real need Not meant for all those college "kids" that party and smoke "weed" Not meant for all those shacking up with a "daddy" in the house His room and board? It's on our dime he's a government sponsored louse Not meant for all those gambling addicts ponies, cards and slots Nor tires and wheels for pimp mobiles making haves, out of (have nots) Not meant for big screen TV sets oops that's right, they are X-box set with all the games you're treated like a star It's all measured, by the masses and how we live, (I guess) Even cars just ten years old are causing too much stress Not knocking those that really need just those that "win and play" making us, taxpayer fools while they enjoy their day When the wage, hits fifteen plus they won't give up their checks That "nagging injury" that they have has made their life complex.....
