Unknowing Assistance
Looking around, trying to hide
wanting to be seen,
acting dumb, nothing known,
my senses stay so keen.
No, we've never met
can't remember if we had
contacts that know me
think of me as bad.
Sometimes speak the truth
most of the time I lie
nighttime keeps me busy
best time to spy.
Sleep in alleys, meet on jets
hide in hotel rooms
cut my hair, grow a beard
different identities I assume.
Slowly gaining trust
been called a best friend
not knowing when finished
never see me again.
Bragged that I'm wealthy
or world's greatest lover
yes, there's lots of perks
working undercover.
Searching for answers
wishing knew the questions
learning who strayed the path
teaching them a lesson.
Looking for missing money
jewelry that's turned hot
trying to assist you
keeping what you got.
No matter what asked to do
never say can't
that's the reason I'm called
The World's Greatest Plant.
