My boy I say you're unaware of |
|
Things that |
|
I am unaware of |
|
The things they say behind one's back |
|
That you suspect but aren't quite sure of |
|
Don't say you haven't noticed |
|
The smell of money is all about me |
|
I just can't rid myself |
|
Of it's overpowering bouquet |
|
My inner beauty cursed with obscurity |
|
By a scent that can't be washed away |
|
I don't know who you think |
|
I am But if |
|
I'm who I think |
|
I am Then there's no cranny |
|
I've examined |
|
Taints the air where ere |
|
I am But don't say you haven't noticed |
|
The smell of money wafts all about me |
|
It neutralizes any other odors |
|
I convey Best friends won't tell me |
|
They know |
|
I'm suffering |
|
With a scent that can't be washed away |
|
The stench of money |
|
Is reeking off of me |
|
A mix of cheap cologne |
|
Weasel pheromone and rotted grave |
|
Thank dad and mommy |
|
I'm filthy, stinking rich |
|
So I can say to you "Piss off" |
|
I bathe, I bathe |
