Free Cee All He Really Had To Say Was Oink

ALL HE REALLY HAD TO SAY WAS “OINK”

I found an easy corner to get to me some rest
I believed it was easy but I was wrong
I laid down on the concrete at my weary feet's behest
but then a cop showed up and said “move along”

“but mr. lawman” I said in a plaintiff way
my feet are burning and my eyes need to close
of course the cop didn't care what I had to say
he thought I was just being verbose

I tried to convince him to let me stay
but cops will be cops as I always say
still he insisted I be on my way
yet my mouth refused to utter the word “okay”

we traded words and I he began to yell
my body and mind had quite enough
so I told the pig to go to hell
and that's how I ended up in handcuffs
