Resolutions

Resolutions

New Years is due and it’s time to resolve
To make  the right choices and change my life
So that in order that I may evolve
To start anew and avoid useless strife
To organize now and seek all my goals
The favorite stat is to lose some weight
To eat even less and avoid  bread rolls
Maybe in time, I’ll forget what I ate
I'll go to the gym and strengthen myself
So I can feel good and make love to Mae
But not to forget my smokes on the shelf
And watch what I spend each and every day
For they’ll come a time when payments are due
To Alimonies number one and two
