Your Most Sarcastic Song!

[bete]

I've been a TAXI member for years and just joined Forum tonight. Enjoying reading your sarcastic song lyrics, my own favorite is a few lines I wrote recently to the melody of "There were Ten in the Bed":There's a hundred million bucks - in the I R As and trusts - Roll over, roll overSo they all rolled over and the bottome fell outThere's ninety-nine million bucks - in the I R As and trusts - etc. For a real song offering: Left to LoseAin’t life wonderful, shiverin’ in a barren roomAin’t life wonderful, can’t remember last tastin’ foodGivin thanks for rags to wrap around worn out shoesAin’t life wonderful when there is nothin’ left to loseAin’t life beautiful, mommas cryin’ heartbreak tunesAin’t life beautiful, babies wrapped in reds, blacks and bluesGlad for freebie needles just to mask aches and flusAin’t life beautiful when hope is all that’s left to lose Demons, screamin Dancin’ to the beats of pain Thundrin’, runnin’ Stumblin’ through the drummin’ rain All hope’s leaving At the brink of a sewer drain Got to break out, break out, got to break out Until I’m broke from crueler strain Ain’t life mystical, sleepin’ ’neath a cardboard roofAin’t life mystical, sharin tossed out greens, breads and rootsWarmed by shrouds of clouds from mugs of steamed noxious brewsAin’t life mystical, come find me somethin' left to lose Oh, maybe Maybe we can find us some thing maybe something’s LEFT TO LOSEThanks for letting me shareBette

I know there's no 'e' at the end of 'bottom.' (Just didn't want you all to think the new kid on the block couldn't spell.) BTW this new kid is not a kid; actually I'm a senior citizenBette
