Wait No More

With horses revving under the hood,
speed cameras will not treat me good,
and the copper said ‘hey,
for you I waited all day’ ...
well I got there as quick as I could.

In reply to what you told me down here. NOTHING has ever gotten me off from having tickets. Even when I am sweet as can be with the cops!

Hello Andrea … I guess they've been warned about writing so many tickets each day, and if every excuse was believed, not many tickets would be written. Good luck next time Andrea - Lindsay

Hello Phyllis … without the police, society would be very dangerous, if it isn't bad enough with them around. They must hear some weird excuses - thanks Phyllis - Lindsay
