Congratulations to me! They're singing my praises in Carnegie Hall My poems are being recited Everywhere from grade school to, well . . . Carnegie Hall Those poems I wrote Unpublished each and every one Estelle, my wife is reaping in my rewards I know, I know I was in the process of divorcing her When the heart attack struck me down Never mind that My poems live, man Not buried in some dusty old trunk in the attic I admit it's a shame I’m not there to cash in myself Uh, about Estelle I accused her of having an affair Couldn't prove it But now I find out I was right She was cheating on me You two were married yesterday You and her will sail for France On my poems-generated money In the morning ©July 17, 2018 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
