Show them the ropes

Show them the ropes 
They tighten the nuse
Then roll up a smoke
Decline all the food
Smoke up some dope 
Buy them some booze
Nowhere to go 
But tying their shoes
Going for broke 
Dice that they threw
The goal is a joke
No smiles from you
Gone cold as a coat
Or ice on the roof
That's totally froze
And too high to go scoop
