Jank is a crank today; her hair messed up locks.
Crabby with the tabby on the block; mixed up socks.
Stay out of her way; ego trippin' attitude.
Missed the bus on the way to work; moody and lewd.
Jank is a crank today; flopped down hard on the couch.
Ran out of sugar for coffee; mixed up emotional grouch.
Dropped her phone on the cement; ten short on rent.
Forgot to pay her car note; now her money is all spent.
Jank was a crank today; looked within for a lift-up.
Went out to pet the cat; pulled her socks up.
Took a long walk; and had a convo with her soul.
Sat on the bench on her route; apologized for being low.

Need a Job
I’m just a young man trying to make it out here
Struggles and danger I’m trying to steer clear
Just out of high school, baby on the way
Oops, I was in love what can I say
My girl is always crying we gotta take care of the baby
She says it’s definitely yours, not a maybe
I’m trying to present and represent myself to get this jam
Chillin out thinking of all the times in school
I didn’t do my best and oh dam lacking in skills I am
Trying to complete this paperwork for 7.25 an hour
Definitely not a job of power
It aint easy to get this jank
Experience, education I have to leave blank
Driving on fumes thinking of a plan
Gotta be a man can’t grandstand
That won’t put bread in my pocket
Still trying to avoid being on a court docket
