Free Cee a Ponzi Theme
A PONZI THEME
This is a tale ten thousand times told
A story about a young man who eventually grew old
If there are traps in life he avoided every hitch
This is a parable about a poor man who grew rich
This is a tale only certain people care to declare
Some folks do and others don’t dare
Stepping on stones like bones and treating people like pets
With the immoral means in which a driven man pays his debts
He made foes out of friends and friends out of foes
For unprincipled people like him anything goes
He had women bared naked and men kneeling at his feet
He was a heathen most moral men never get to meet
One of his multi-million dollar apartments overlooked the center of Central Park
He earned all those many millions by hiding in the dark
Each morning he arose to more lies and deception
And should have abandoned his abuses upon their inception
Yet smiles can’t seclude the truth one knows inside
And all the honesty his amoral ambition defied
So this has been a narrative thousands of year old
It recounts a man’s secret about his soul to whom Satan he sold
