I'm broke like a joke that ain't even funny
I'm pretty good at everything except making money
I never cared for its garish symbolism
Its incongruity between power and weight
Or the increase of gravity you get with the more that you make
I endeavor to remain just as light as a feather
But if you feel obliged to give me some
Why that's all the more better!
