He’s a mess

Jenny, Jenny, a plastic bag of pennies

Roll ‘em in brown paper, turn ‘em into twenty

Have I made myself clear?”

But I’m not broken

“Hey man, can I bum a smoke?”

Last chance landlord, renting out a closet

Picking up the weekly, making the deposit

Walking from the bank while we’re headed for the National Exchange

Ahh This world is strange
