corylusavellana Such a surprising song, and so wonderfully catchy. Dec 27, 2008
Prolagus You’re a white collar boy and you gave into the law
Give in to the pressure, the cops gonna getcha!
You were a thieving dog at work until they caught your little paw
Your wage won’t stretch, to picking up checks
A custodial sentence you narrowly avoided
Community service you had to go along with
You’re banging the rocks at the old city docks
Poor boy!
