Get Dressed
If you're too tired too eat the meat
Grow a backbone and stand on your own two feet
Doesnt' happen in a minute
Doesn't happen in an hour
Works like soaking in marinade
Longer it sits,
More flavor is added to the taste of power
Lips and a voice allow you to speak
Ears allow you to hear
Eyes allow you to see
You'd rather ignore these miraculous gifts
While you relax and drink a beer
You wake the next day
Disappointed that you've settled for a job you hate
Get dressed, drive to work
Life is too short for this..common!
Why do you wait?
No wonder you keep yourself so well groomed
You've got nothing else to offer, you feel doomed
That mentality wont get you down the block
Take a sick day and learn to play with sidewalk chalk
Money isn't the root of all evil
It's greedy people that want to be in histories sequel.
