Down River

Down River

 FAWM #8

Sensationally sheik L’s into disco this week                            

Down at the new club voila the super freak                        

Dancing through the pain snorting cocaine’s a boost             

Just when them chickens coming home to roost?          

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

 

Bishop works security an ex-Newark police man

I counted eighteen people who gave a damn

I look out of the window my lone escape

In my mind I find the repeating tape

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

 

Sushi’s fine but the caviar’s simply divine

Oh I don’t know I just need something to call mine

The view from penthouse forty-five a pretty sight

Tears flow down her cheek something just ain’t right

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime

 

Billionaires don’t say prayers for the bums on the street

Rich man don’t know the hunger of having no food to eat

Pretty L I can tell your desire ain’t the stock market going higher

She’s a powder keg ready to beg to light her fire

 

Raven I wrote you a poem do you remember

For each win somebody gotta surrender

She’s mixing martinis in her new blender

Welcome to hell L so young and tender

 

I went down river haven’t you heard

Flew south with a flock of birds

Lilly and Princess dropped by from time to time

Here I am down river and I’ve done no crime
