Sweet, Short Note
Patrick was well-behaved in school
He followed every single stupid rule
He studied hard and earned top grades
All his friends knew he had it made
At college, he planned and plotted who to friend
Elected President of his class in the end
He entered the coroporate world on a roll
CEO of Trans-Oceana Corp. his only goal
By the way, Patrick took a wife
Lived the absentee-husband suburban good life
Then one fine day Patrick made CEO
He hurried home, the wife and kids to show
But on the door was taped a note, sweet and short
'We've had enough, stranger. See you in court!'
