sometime the horns starts the intro's
I love it when the horns play
I 'll catch the groove and start
to ah dancing
while the horns do their thang.
the accentated bass line
a riff that makes you wanna groove
the percussion rhythm
make's your body move
when that Ole Crooner start's
ah Croonin the background
start's to sing
when my foot starts ah tappin
I know then the kinda song to sing
Me encanta esta música sensual
Me dan ganas de bailar
Me encantan los metales y las cuerdas
Su ritmo me hace
aprovechar la oportunidad, ¿sabes?
the writer’s words were shoddy
slipshod, shabby, sloppy, sleazy
but many readers liked his style
his work was elevated by his followers
who bought everything that he wrote
enjoying it, because they understood it
not connoisseurs of literature,
but appreciators of familiar, ordinary, common text
with uncomplicated characters and familiar plots
Having known scoundrels, like these up close,
Happily using your monies on which to dine
Family coffers stuffed, be they duly accursed!
High cost yes,your money buys them fine wine.
Why stand you chairlesss,at graveside service,
As these pretentious mongrels at you,widely smile.
Are you not aware of their most greedy malice?
You, the mourning,blind,unaware of their unholy guile.
Let serving all the grieving, be their primary practice.

3 O’Clock dawns
Naughty night beckons
Bored of the same old
In need of fun
With any old one
Sorry Brides
Sleazy Grindr is looming
One knows you’re just assuming
But I ideally wanna be with someone
Anyway...
Asian chubby walks in
Beary chest, impeccable teeth
Almost like a race horse
Bed, shower, floor
All over
There’s no limits with this wannabe
Casanova....
He leaves
One feels slightly empty and restless
Short hedonistic fix
No long term gain
Only more pain
Love’s bound to prevail soon
Long ago, once we were teens,
We all read "Mad" magazines,
Now we read of Peter Fonda passing,
Down the tarmac ever blasting,
Always in a "Sleazy Rider" cartoon,
Forever young, a classic lampoon!
I once knew a sleazy man, J. Ernie,
J. was a wild abusive attorney.
Killed his mob boss client,
looking so defiant-
Man was lucky all the cops were dirty!
* I chose lawyer *

Socialites and the elites’ absence, they pledge
Low life exhibition will always emerge
Adults basking in the lowest stratum’s edge
Zero tolerance for the toppers to dredge
Yeah, dry land has nothing to do with a sledge
Sort of Sleazy
Trump with all things is out of step,
And at doing things not ever adept;
Slept uneasy;
Sort of sleazy;
In on him old age has crept and crept.
Jim Horn
Do not worry about a lot of sleazy men, yon female gender. Some of may be sleazy, but not necessarily crazy. We just happen to enjoy the finer things in life, within the law, of course.
You are being very sleazy
But cleaning up your act is easy
Friends cover your every action
You feel the satisfaction
Of getting one over on me
It's just in your history
Using women for their love
When your bored you like to shove
Them aside for someone who
Is exciting and brand new
This kind of life will never last
Your lies will pile up too fast
Keeping track will just become
A web of lies that come undone
Exposing you for the fraud
That can no linger be ignored
By every woman you degraded
With attitude that left them jaded
Because you wanted to prove
There was no way you could lose
This hurtful game of sex and lies
With questions of unanswered why's
Let me tell you about sleazy Sally.
She wants to be everyone's Pally.
Just deposit thirty dollars in her slot.
And Sally will give you everything she's got.
Sally says, Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Do it fast or do it slow.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hello Joe, let me give you a blow.
I want to marry Sleazy Sally
Cause I love her so
Sleazy Sally, She's all right.
I tried her just the other night.
Sleazy Sally, she can put up a fight.
And after years of working, she's still tight.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Marry me Sally. I love you so.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
I'm begging. I'm pleading. Please don't go.
I want to marry Sleazy Sally.
Cause I love her so.
Me and Sally married just the other night
But, she still works on the side, she's got her pride.
She enjoy's her job, with her John's and her Bob's,
but she's mine for free through eternity.
Dilly dally in the alley with Sally
Dilly dally in the alley with Sally
Dilly dally in the alley with Sally
Sally
Sally
Sally
These diseases are patented by some mad scientist
Made-up to scare us no made up to kill us
Lying saying they're looking for a cure
but we're not buying this Fake campaign slogan and they're vicious
too malicious they'll eat you out a house and home
and your soul Cause you're "Magically delicious"
They'll take your last dime and still tax you
It's in their blood so they have to
The greedy hate the needy but they need you
Like a crooked salesmen they're greasy and sleazy
Thinkin you easy but just take it easy and take a nap too
And trust God even though you know they're after u
