Let's Go

I could be sitting on a bench right now
Or hitting the crossroads at petticoat junction
Instead of listening to this moronic cow
Across my desk trying to plan a function

I could be watching drug crazed children
Beg for quarters to buy Mountain Dew
Enjoying the stench of the city's jetsam
Or lying in the bed with you

We could be sailing the Bermuda reach
Risking unknown terrors frightful
Or swimming naked on private beach
With a dry champagne so delightful

Seems life is filled with many choices
Some are just plain rotten
Let's listen to the sirens voices
Responsibilities forgotten

All play no work until such time
As our meager funds run out
Then back to work for a short time
And away again no doubt

Like Huckleberry with Jim you'll go
Floating down Old Man River
Stopping off to dance real slow
Until you make me shiver
