Just Another Junkie By The Side of the Road

 

Mirror Mirror watch out for that toad!

Oh, it's just another junkie by the side of the road

He must have come from really good stock

Gee, the most politest junkie on the block

 

His daddy runs around, tells them how to live their lives

He's the first to cast stones, that's how his business thrives

Call the cops to help, if you got the nerve

But junior's policing idea / is to protect and swerve

 

Public servants, look what they did to me

and a another cop, allegedly, to a Fulton Street tree

They're like beggars with taxpayers /filling their cup

The apple don't fall far so "bottom's up."

 

If you write about their crimes they go into fits

A city chock full of damned hypocrites

You buy them 'xpensive dinners, with melon and pear

And you get convicted felon as a school vice chair

 

Candidates for office need a CORI check

If they want a TV show, oh what the heck

Their resumes replete with/ nepotism embellishment 

a rancid city sated with / criminal element  

 

Mirror Mirror they're so absorbed with self

Citizens working hard/are put on some dusty shelf

These monsters, gangsters think they're the elite

What happened to the kindly cop

that used to walk the beat

 

You can see their broken souls / when those canaries have to sing

The entitled and their flaws are  found / in their offspring

A bunch of broken people who stay in power for too long

some invasive species eating / a world in which they don't belong

Yeah...Satan Satan, begone begone

Begone, Satan!

lots more on this but I got a ZOOM meeting for work on a Sunday...go figure...we'll get back to this sordid story later 

 

(getting to write some verses while working on Zoom...technology is great!)
