Broke

Can I just take a second here

To clear the air, and bend your ear

I’m not sure you quite understand

Why you should lend this friend a hand

I’m an educated, stand-up guy,

Who is more than just a suit and tie,

Just a decent and hardworking man who always had a five-year plan.

So jeez, I mean please!

i’m no scamy- slimy- slob.

I’ve just beard off my track a bit, cause ma’am I lost my job!

I’m totally broke.

And this feeling is new to me.

I’m suddenly broke.

And it’s not like it used to be.

I had regular hours and magical powers and cutlings and cloud.

Now I’m broke.

And I’m kind of freaking out.

You’re not singing the blues to me, sir.

I was a master of the universe,

A golden boy, with a golden birth

But not one of those Walstreet jerks

Though I’ll admit, I like the perks.

Like their private jet, we flew to France,

And these hundred-dollar underpants

And Alexis, and the river view,

You don’t feed the children? I fed two.

But my rent’s three months late,

And I live in on Rominar beans,

Should I put it away, for some rainy day

Now I know what a rainy day means

I’m flat broke

From my decade long standing spring

Unbelievably broke

Facebook friends are unfriending me.

If I were to go back in time,

I’d go back and tell myself to pay attention

I would not write that joke, describing my boss,

In words I should maybe not mention.

Just don’t lead it Nate, not worth it, man.

The payoff’s really small,

But the consequence is really huge

When you hit “reply all”.

Dumb ass.

I’m broker than broke,

And not just financially.

This whole thing is broken,

My sense of who I should be.

Cause my Annex has maxed,

My Mastercard maxed,

My blooming was in Bernes,

And my TJ, forth locker?

I’m drowning in bed and don’t know what to do.

I know it’s squalid but I do need it solid, I know, I know that you can…

This metro card was my only card that still worked.

Oh please, please lady, help a baffled, broken, broke-ass man.
