Hell On Church Street Ii

Lunch time
and i haven't got a dime
Freezing rain
and the furnace is down again
Old Toyota
just went up in flames

He never asks me what I want 
He just sends curses
one by one
So I stand
fist clenched hand
raised toward the sky
Saying
what else can you show me

Very interesting. If this is personal life influenced I hope things do get better!
