WRITTEN: JANUARY 30TH, 2013 WHILE WORKING @ LIBERTY TAX
PREY TELL
WHAT THE HELL
IS YOU DOING
MY SALES PITCH
HAS PASSED
TOO FAST
FOR YOU TO CATCH
TOO LATE
FOR A SECOND CHANCE
JUDGE ME LIKE
THE COVER OF A BOOK
STANDING IN THE GRASS
AS YOU LOOK
TO TAKE A GLANCE
AT THE CLOWN
UNDERNEATH THE CROWN
SPINNING AROUND TOWN
WITH HIS
ENVY GREEN GOWN
AS HIS PARENTS SLEEP
PEACEFULLY
6 FEET UNDERGROUND
LAUGH AT HIM
AS HE PROCEEDS
TO THE BANK
TO CASH HIS CHECK
HE JUST GOT PAID
AS YOU WEEP
WISHING
YOU HAD
A J.O.B.
ASK YOURSELF
WHO IS THE ONE
LAUGHING BY HIMSELF
SIPPING ON A 40
AS HE SINGS
LA TE DA DE
I DON'T NEED
ANYBODY
HAPPY GO LUCKY
STATUE OF LIBERTY
SWEET HOME
OF THE FREE
A PRICE HE MUST PAY
ON THE BRINK
OF GOING INSANE
HE DRINKS THE SAME AMOUNT
IN OUNCES
AS HOURS HE WORKS
IN A WEEK
FASTER THAN
A 40 MINUTE TIME FRAME
HE WISHES
HE COULD EXPLAIN
WHAT HE SEES IN A DAY
BUT THE SEA
IS TOO DEEP
AS HE DROWNS
HIS SORROWS AWAY
