The Prince's Royalty Statement

What happens when you have negative balance? Does that mean the Prince does not get his allowance? We are a small country you see No longer a part of Russia very much free But our Prince in the United States Has a book spinning a tale of relationship and mates There was no money in this recent take Are they saying the Prince’s writing is nothing but a fake? Is this all right? His words are fluffy and light We villagers all know the reality is half a barn That is his title in a real life legendary Lithuanian yarn But his royalty check is under nil despite his authorship being important still His accounts are honest and real Interpretive fiction not the art of the deal As it goes for our real estate holder Dig in heels be stronger and bolder we know it’s the Sicilian inside that keeps you fed But my prince the Lithuanian is the one holding the chips allowing nothing to be in debt
