Toerag Unemployment Plan
By Larry Chadwick


Toerag was feeling the pinch of being unemployed,
He needed to make some money his wife was getting annoyed.
So he devised his plan from sheer desperation,
But he considered it complete inspiration.

Spotting an young boy playing on the swing,
He told him to take this note to his mom, it is inspiring.
Running home the boy gave her the note he had,
Which she read out loud and it really made her mad.

“This is Toerag and I am going to kidnap your son,
Unless you send him to the park with a check it won’t be fun.
$5,000 dollars is what I demand from you,
Have him meet me at the park at half past two.”

So sure enough the boy delivered as Toe planned,
And with the check a note he carried in his hand.
This whole thing was working out so well,
That Toe decided he would sit and read the note a spell.

“Here is the money that you are taking away from me,
I can’t believe you’d do this to me, your wife, it’s so rude you see.”
So Toe hurried off to make his deposit at the bank,
To be overdrawn would really be quite rank.
