I'm up before you,
I'm up after you,
Burning the midnight oil
As if I didn't toil.

Burning the wick
On both ends,
No wonder I'm
Always sick.

Roy's very silly
Always "willy-nilly"
Playing with no 
Rhyme or reason.

He bull-dozes us

Then they're both
Up at two,
So what do you do?...

Greed Is For the Weak
Greed is for the weak

Greed is for the weak.
Those who fail to act but speak
Because talk is cheap.
They tend to hate those on success trip,
Forgetting whiles those on success trip were burning the midnight oil, they were asleep.
When you are strong, you live your dream
If you live your dream, time won't permit you to accept greed.
Drop the greed, take up your dream and be on stream.
Because Greed is for the weak....
