Why I Overdrew
Against my better judgment I order a lenny’s subway
The girl beside me was giving me the eye so I gave her the opening line God it’s a great day
She giggled a little and said that’s the line you decided to go with haha, so what’s your name
Its working like a charm for the moment and by the way the names James
We chatted a little and decided we should have lunch before her next class
After she ordered her food we walked to the register to notice that I was low on cash
I allowed her to order first because I still had cash to hunt for and search
Darnit, I thought to myself I know I got no paper all I have is this card
And I know this card aint got much money on it but hell i’ll take the risk and be a retard
She swiped the card and I almost choked to see my total 12.85 damit I knew
I had 12.00 total on my card but I played it cool, because only I knew I overdrew
