For Crying Out Loud....
Here I am again, turmoil tossed in my face
Can’t I get away, for just one day
No problems or worries,
It’s just a another breakdown
For crying out loud
Do I walk with a target upon my back…
How do these things find me
I certainly don’t go looking for troubles..
Found another notice in the mail today…
You need to pay your bill!!!
It’s overdue, did you overlook it..
Please remit your payment today…
For crying out loud
Rear tire needs air in it..
Got to get gas, again, and again
Ten bucks don’t go far these days…
What to do, I’m at the mercy
Of stuck between a rock and a hard place
Battery is dead on the mower, why not..
Ain’t got enough gas to mow anyways…
Am I the only one, out here in this mess…
Does anyone want some of my stress
I’m not really trying to impress
But this junk keeps creating distress
For crying out loud…
I’ve been blindsided once again
Car payment is due, good grief..
Macaroni and cheese is really getting old
Beanies and weenies are a real treat
Now and then, when there is a sale
Two for one, wowie, I want more..
Can’t get me enough of them deals…
For crying out loud
I sure remember when, a buck went far..
I believe I am being priced out of
Sheer existence, to say the least…
Thanks for the memories, to the days of old
I guess I’m headed for replacement
I just can’t reform to the pressures
Of this advancing world…
For crying out loud…
What have we done
To this wonderful life
And just when I thought
The fun was going to start…
Here I am now
Holding my head, in my hands
Crying out loud…
