Taking A Stand

Inspired by a homeless guy in Montreal who asked us for some "money to test the effects of marijuana on my brain"

Fuck this
And fuck that
As you walk on by
Drop money in my hat

I’m down on my luck
Without a dime to my name
I used to love the women
A winner at the game

But now I beg for pity
On the cold pavement all day
“Money to test the effects of marijuana on my brain?”
Seems quite clever to say

I’m tired of rolling
With my monotonous surroundings
But you can take your luck
And all your findings

I’ll keep pounding the pavement
The only way I know how
Fuck you Mr.
I deserve a bow

Go ahead
Work for the man
While I say “Fuck You”
I’m taking a stand
Adolescence in essence is all about trust.
Leaving is for the answering machine.
