Can I afford this parking ticket Or can I append this to the stack Shoved inside my back pocket It's never coming out I'm down to smoke Then douse myself with a slurry of worms But I am improving in how I make my bed in the morning Well- Always a hundredth excuse For defending a purchase I've never used At least I'll have an arsenal Sinking deeper every day To the thought of Birthing a dozen children with you With you I'll take half and the others can pet the cats We hung the prints Oh shit we forgot the frames again Above the bed Has graduated to acrylic shelves Do you think we can finish off our reading list What is that peeking out of your pocket You said, "It's a sugar cookie, babe." "Enhance your palate" (There's) always a hundredth excuse For defending a purchase I've never used At least I'll have an arsenal Sinking deeper every day To the thought of Birthing a dozen children with you With you I'll take half and the others can pet the cats
