FIXIN' TO FINISH

d'Verse Poets Pub

Anyhow
the main thing is
to keep busy
otherwise too much time
to sit around an' think of how
you screwed yer life up
irretrievably
an' all those folks
out on the road
hunkered down over the wheel
with murder in their eyes
tryin' to get somewhere
in a frightful hurry
just to keep busy
just to keep those images at bay
just to keep on keepin' on
got a bad score on that
bitch of an obstacle course 
Life 101
an' it ain't gonna get no better now
with the finish line in sight
but it takes some 
cojones
Charlie Brown
not to grab your football
and go home
nah
screw it
maybe you don't deserve
to be here
with the polite company
but damned if you ain't
damned if you ain't
maybe get a better score
next time around
but fixin' to finish
anyway
fixin' to finish
fixin' to finish
just keep sloggin'
givin 'em the finger
right up high and pretty
out your side window
lay offa that horn
lest y'all wanna wait a few more
seconds
just for spite
ha ha
ease back
turn up yer radio
we'll all get there 
soon enough
Stupid
