Commentary: Talkin’ No Free Box Blues By Saul Crypps

Friday October 28, 2005

Soup stains, skid marks 

rips and tears 

Danglin’ threads and pubic hairs. 

I put on my pants to keep me warm, 

Got a nice color 

but they are rather worn. 

Would get some more from the Free Box 

But it just burnt down. 

Firefighters put it out and left with a frown. 

“If we hadn’t been here, we’d lost the town”. 

They get $5,000 a month to put out flames. 

Detectives want to know who did it and who’s to blame, 

and its the poor who now bear the shame. 

We don’t deserve the Free Box, cause we just sit 

around. 

Like the Fire Fighters when they are not saving town.
