Christopher Lampton Poet Prose

Food Stamp Phone

a food stamp phone, a food stamp phone,
my ole lady wants a food stamp phone.
chatting all night with jean, tom, and joan
my ole lady wants a food stamp phone.
says she must have one to connect with the 
people she needs to talk to the most and I'm always
gone and she's so alone.
she's willing to give up t.v. and whatever else there is
as long as she can have a food stamp phone.
