Anita Odure Odeh Poet I do not know?

Stucked

Mama said
Don't drink and drive 
So I drank and didn't drive 
They offered a beer 
I took a soda 
They offer a drive 
I took a walk

Flash lights was all I saw
Being hit like a log 
I did the crime 
Mama said not to do
Loud siren 
Faint cries 
Now I pay the price for 
A  debt I did not owe


Mama said 
Don't drink and drive
They drank and drove
And I am stuck in a wheelchair
Paying a price for their beer
