I only got a Blue Cheese
and I need a burger bad
said he’d only take Dixie
or a Jackson at a push
now I’m beggin’ on my knees
but don’t wanna make him mad
I’m in a foodie fixie
but he said “go kiss my tush”
The largest bill I have seen personally is a hundred- dollar bill
I do not like them
They are not as easy to spend as a twenty-dollar bill
Or a five- dollar bill
The largest denomination circulated was the ten-thousand-dollar bill
I would like to see a photo of one of these
But would not like to try and spend it
The stores turn up their noses at the hundred
Dwelling on the past
You could have never known
You could have never seen this coming
Over-preparing for the future
I’ve never seen you prepare that much for anything
Over-thinking in a knife fight
is like running in a forest while it’s raining
Memorable,
but not what you wanted to happen next
In the midst of a tragedy,
in a second of memory,
I saw what hurt you most
Now I see
it was an inner conflict
and not a character flaw
But not everyone has an open mind
to see inside these things
In a moment of recollection,
a speck of time worth waiting for
I had your number dialed on the phone,
all I had to do was call
Now I see
it was an inner conflict
and not a character flaw
I’m sorry that it took so long
Waking up for one
Do people leave the house anymore?
Responding to your distress call,
I’m sorry that it took so long
Waking up for one
Do people talk to each other anymore?
A memory of pure ecstasy
A speck of time worth waiting for
It's impossible to hum with your nose blocked
Don't try it you'll give yourself a hernia
About two hundred babies are born every minute
Guess there's not much doing in suburbia
Dust under your bed is your own dead skin
Unbelievable but that's what they say
There are more nerve cells in the human brain
Than there's stars in the Milky Way
The water you drink has already been drunk
By others, what a charming thought
Donkeys kill more people than plane crashes
That's not something I think of a lot
A million dollars in one hundred dollar bills
Weighs only about twenty-two pounds
A disposable diaper holds seven pounds of pee
That's too much information I've found
97% of money contains a trace of cocaine
Have you sniffed your dollar bills of late
The glue on Israeli stamps is certified kosher
This leaves me in an overwrought state
10 million bricks are in the Empire State Building
Masons surely had a heavy load
That's it for now but there'll be more to follow
Keep an eye out for them down the road
i wish cooperation was a dollar bill
if so, then i would be on the road with my Sweets
however, life is what it is, so i choose to remain an ageless dreamer
for when a dream is lived, the feeling of accomplishment is unmatched
i guess i need to go to bed, i need my rest for my everyday trip tomorrow
the alarm is set for 3:10am, however, i do not dread it
instead, i embrace it, for i know too many who research blunt force trauma
i remind myself not to forget my amored helmet
i better put that downstairs with the rest of the usual stuff
i bet you a chicken, egg, and cheese biscuit that i will dream about cooperation being the new and improved dollar bill again
i wonder if leftover coconut shrimp will go good with said chicken, egg, and cheese biscuit
hmmmmm, at least i have my Sweets in which to savoringly savor....
My daughter wrote a poem
“Twenty Dollar bill”
It will have memories of her
That will certify
“Once upon a time in Hollywood.”
We decipher, we digress
Pizza talks, Hot Pizza
Cold Beverages
And we surmise
Because we need to be
Our best selves
In becoming.
The dollar bill has lots of thirteens.
Referring to the original thirteen colonies.
Pyramid steps – thirteen
String of pearls – thirteen.
Stars – thirteen.
Stripes – thirteen.
Eagle’s arrows – thirteen.
Shield – thirteen.
Olive branch leaves – thirteen
Olives - take a wild guess.
Have a million dollar bill in my hot little hands
When I present it to cashiers, they poop in their pants
A promotional gimmick
But ever so realistic
When they threaten to call the police, I'm gone in a glance
Money is what everyone craves, but not everyone has
It has slipped through the grasp of many
Some have a sixth sense when it comes to the magical hue
Green is the preferred color
Jackson has become a personal mentor
Those on the quest to meet all of the presidents,
find themselves continuously on the prowl
Have a million dollar bill in my hot little hands
When I present it to cashiers, they poop in their pants
A promotional gimmick
But ever so realistic
When they threaten to call police, I'm gone in a glance

New Picture for Dollar Bill
By Elton Camp
There’s a movement underway
To make currency fit more today
Only a very long time ago
Did a woman’s picture show
Martha Washington was the one
Though but little by her was done
There’s one I’d prefer to see
Dolly Parton it should be
I’m sure that most would agree
She’s better than George to see
My choice, please follow through
She’s beautiful and competent, too
To remove him, we really should
A fuddy-duddy with teeth of wood
A nation’s image is everything
A better one, Dolly would bring
“You’re disrespectful,” some may say
But Washington is just so “yesterday”
His deeds were a long time ago
Who can know if they’re even so?
Some of them, it surely seems
Came from lying Parson Weems
An unstoppable move has begun
Let’s put Dolly Parton on the one!
PING HAD A DOLLAR BILL
Ping had a Dollar bill got from the king Weevil,
Who loved nuts, beans, almonds, millets ,peas as a meal;
So Ping named the king- ‘Crackpea’;
Queen? ‘Nut’, invariably
And gave the dollar to bee Toll and went downhill
It's impossible to hum with your nose plugged
Don't try it you'll give yourself a hernia
About two hundred babies are born every minute
Guess there's not much doing in suburbia
Dust under your bed is your own dead skin
Unbelievable but that's what they say
There are more nerve cells in the human brain
Than there's stars in the Milky Way
The water you drink has already been drunk
By others, what a charming thought
Donkeys kill more people than plane crashes
That's not something I think of a lot
A million dollars in one hundred dollar bills
Weighs only about twenty-two pounds
A disposable diaper holds seven pounds of pee
That's too much information I've found
97% of money contains a trace of cocaine
Have you sniffed your dollar bills of late
The glue on Israeli stamps is certified kosher
This leaves me in an overwrought state
10 million bricks are in the Empire State Building
Masons surely had a heavy load
That's it for now but there'll be more to come
Keep an eye out for them down the road

Paying With a Million Dollar Bill
By Elton Camp
(This is absolutely a true story. Google it and see if you think not.)
In North Carolina, a man went to Wal-Mart for a deal
To make payment, he gave a million dollar bill as real
When the cashier, in disbelief, commenced to protest,
Customer, “Give my change if you know what’s best.”
Why, that fellow would have had to be just a total jerk
For there was absolutely no way that trick could work
Even if the cashier it had proved possible to deceive,
The register held change for a million, who’d believe?
Very soon the cops arrived and ushered him out the door
Manager said, “Don’t you ever try to shop here anymore.”
Now the customer two serious felonies has to face
Is likely to be sent to prison in ignominious disgrace
The hundred dollar bill is the largest note in existence
To present one for a million was a foolish insistence
i'm on the dollar bill, bet you didn't know.
What i truly represent only a select few know.
NO! i'm not a pyramid, and NO! i'm not the eagle,
but i do agree with those Latin word and some of
those people.
If your next guess is Washington I'll say your far off,
give it a few more tries bet you there all wrong.
For some of you people who's compus point east,
know that this is not about the square and key.
Next time you fly over Washington D.C., LOOK
DOWN AT THE WHITE HOUSE GUESS (WHO) YOU'LL
SEE.
Here's the last clue you only get (ONE) I'LL tell you
this just for fun.
I was mentioned in the bible, my sacrifices require fire
some worshiped me as a god, do you find that odd.
i have many faces as well as many names. look me up
before you go insane.
LEV:18:21
LEV:20:2:5
2ND:KINGS: 23:10
PS its not Satan, WEAVING SPIDERS COME NOT HERE NEXT!
