Lust Or Money
Some say money is the root of all sins,
But, I think lust ranks well above dough
Money may provide the means, although,
Lusting in the heart is where it all begins.
Money, when wisely invested, you see,
Provides for a wealthy, luxurious retirement
But lust can lead to a long imprisonment
Always remember, the piper pays the fee.
