Got free range to roam
in a plastic dome, poorhouse farm
The debt fence keeps rooster clock me
from payment parachute, golden eggs liberty
Oh, such pecking order karma harm
It’s a butcher’s credit card discount
when it comes to job security
Know for scramble sho’ ...
my life savings gonna bleed
Chicken-hearted, I apathetically
suburbicon move with merit barrier ease
On promotion poverty, I ghetto feed —
The coin crumbs are tossed down
with oval grin fox charm,
to these vote-spinach weak,
scrawny Popeye arms
What’s to become of
upwardly mobile downtrodden me?
I feel the oppression fire,
as I dire breathe
in corporate henpeck attire
So many cubicle drones on a dollar swarm
Got our pension papers
going up in puff severance flames
From the $$ penthouse cigar smoke alarm
Career bobble head success,
it ain’t nothing but frying pan bad luck:
Just no-fault blame
Omelette integrity “yes” chasing a buck
is a sour cluck shame
What’s to become of
downwardly mobile uppity me?
I feel the ambition, pink slip heat,
as boardroom boss dragons say:
To profit prey
is why they fire breathe

more than a lover
sumthang like a goddess
got me crawling on my knees
like I'm roamin thru the dessert
the heat don't bother me
cause the companies best
more than a lover
she's a goddess
feet don't fail me
when she call's my name
gotta be right on time
do what she say
do what she say
friends say
" you're ah henpeck brother"

Jedessa had a sharp shopper’s eye,
her uncanny bar code intuition
told her which bargains to pass by
Irregular fits raised the purse alarm,
buy-as-is was a siren salesman charm
Flute the loose cash with soothing store sounds,
attract the wary souls with free samples all around
Lady Jed had an eagle eye
for those type of common distractions
And a talon grasp for subtle
pleasure principle cortex connections
She had a quick light saber response
to those market dark subliminal actions
Her optical laser beam had a narrow focus red gleam,
cutting edge was her verbal repartee
Parrying with fine domestic skill and consumer wit;
outfoxing the retail office henpeck trolls,
made her floor presence borderline criminal
Holidays spurred return of the red-eye,
Jed always gave a victorious secret sigh ...
and her luxurious signature,
velvet hand-wave gift registry goodbye
