That is my joy
that's where my being oxygenates
for I know to keep some on side
they have to be offered inducements and sweeteners
By those who want me isolated and driven mad
but
while at work, I delighted in watching all of the races
get along , no usual picking on the Asians or others
suddenly everyone is united except me of course.

It was great to see the blokes being courted by the ladies
No Hopers suddenly able to glide in front of me
with a fine lady on hand, while I sit on my lonesome
It really made me happy for them to be happy, I know I'd have some lucky breaks, so it was good, watching others
get the attention and me out of the spotlight

I saw any romantic interest for me is immediately swarmed
and prised away, lulled by bribes and inducements
sweeteners to help wreck any link up
that man's gotta be isolated
so I let them go
to get what will give them succor and relief
did I go bring a wife back, I could have done
but let them keep her at least I know they will
have to provide more than natural, that made me feel good
for she would be courted and spoilt
and swanned over to keep her away from me

this unlover foisted on too, to confuse and tease me
and mind-play me with all their negative offerings
I know they would offer
distractions, inducements and sweeteners
to keep her on-side
the poor small thing needs all she can get given her situation
I put her in place for a better take than would naturally come
I told her, use the situation to your advantage
so I feel good knowing I helped somehow
for I know, as with all things false
sooner or later, things will fall apart
for what is not real can never last

the Devil will ask for its debts and it won't be from me....
and if you lay with rattlesnakes
sooner or later you will rue the day.
