scraping enough coin together
isn't a sought after chore
there's always a payment needed
to settle an invoice's score
the wage packet slim
ever stretched right out
no surplus bucks for
a good bandy about
being short of funds
that's the jingle to sing
a red ink cheque account
can't afford any bling
luxury items are but
a rich codger's domain
being well cashed up
with plenty of grain
money
has
us
under
the
veritable
gun
a
lack
of
it
ain't
much
fun
the landlord has called
to collect the rent
he'll get paid and it'll
leave a wallet dent
