Please---Cancel---That---Meet----And----Greet

PLEASE CANCEL THAT MEET AND GREET

Instant insanity insinuates itself repeatedly but not on me
You know who they are because of their unconventional  thinking
It’s the paranoid  pathetic people as per that which I see
And  those are the  ones I  blame for my drinking 

Craziness comes crawling and calling too many times for me
And these people walk around saying “poor me-- this ain’t no fun”
Lunatics lay in  wait for me to prove that which I see
Well these people ain’t  sane so pour me, pour me, pour me another one

I cannot escape the inescapable
My time ain’t worth their’s or anyone
Especially not with the mentally incapable
And then these people try to get a license for a handgun

No, they want to argue to demonstrate what they are
In front of an audience on my home, the street
So I run to the nearest liquor store or bar
And these are the kind of folk you never want to meet
                      Phreepoetree
