Free Cee Give the Man Alone a Loan

GIVE THE MAN ALONE A LOAN

In all regards I am in arrears
For all but tears
In all regards I am bankrupt
Incorrigible and corrupt

I am incredibly insolvent
And I avoid involvement
I am oftentimes a brute
And undeniably destitute

This is the way I’ve lived for years
In arrears
Corruption corrodes my credit and more
And I am patently poor

I have no assets
And only losing bets
I have no skill
With only time to kill

I never qualify for a loan
And no one throws me a bone
For me the sky never clears
Since I am in all ways always in arrears
