What Folks Do For Money.-Version 2-Matthew F. Blowers III
I can’t believe what
folks do for money
if they’re flat ass broke
they hope to get lucky
by robbing a bank
with a gun and a yell
Next to cameras and guards
that will send them to hell
taking hostages to negotiate
while police bring snipers
all over the place
all looking to shoot them
in their stupid heads
there ain’t no spending money
when you end up dead..
Women marry rich men
wrinkled and gray
scoring sugar daddies
with one foot in the grave
swearing they're his honey
treating him all chummy
They kiss his mouth all gummy
man, that don't taste yummy
But he ain't no dummy
when his last will is red
Wrecking all those rich dreams
that clutter their head
with a huge, sudden shock
and sad disparity
when he leaves all his
wealth to local charities
denying them
one cent of prosperity.
Or those sadly addicted
spending all of their cash
for a very short rush
that is gone in a flash
leaving them needle marks
when they get high then crash
winding up on the streets
eating food from the trash
their hopes sadly narrowing
when they run out of heroin
it’s a drug no one’s sharing
when they’re hooked
no ones caring
selling sex for a fix
stealing all they can get
from their families and friends
just more cash they can spend
till they meet a sad end
in their shortened life span
from a bad mix of dope
with no chance for narcan
and it all goes to shit
faster then it began.

Money is very nice
but it’s also a demon
it’ll tempt you to steal it
Till you’re not a free man
it will promise the world
and leave you bleeding
money never was fair
when it’s gone
you’re still needing
all the ways it was pleasing
it has lured politicians
to commit acts of treason
it weds women to old men
for only one reason
to be a rich widow
when his life hits completion
and you can’t take it with you
someone else claims your wealth
when you become a deposit
in a morgue on a shelf
flat ass broke and buck naked
at that point there’s no saving
anything you once owned
you’d best spend what your making
have a ball…. don’t refrain
cause when death comes to call
all that ever remains
is just your remains
is just your remains
Yeah I can’t believe what
some folks do for money
and most of it’s tragic
it ain’t even funny
