The Life Changer

The Life Changer

By Elton Camp

If you enjoy doing just as you please
There’s one who’ll put you ill-at-ease

A person who’ll take a lot of your money
And do things you may not find so funny

Your life will not be your own again
In a test of wills, that one’s sure to win

If you like eating in a super fancy café,
For entertainment, just find another way

Hours of daily work will be demanded
Your duties have been vastly expanded

But it’s a situation of your own making
Of that clear truth, there is no mistaking

All-too-soon, those days will be behind
Don’t fear them, you won’t really mind
