Topic: Southpaw delivers a tko to the banks
SOUTHPAW BUVVY 5-03-09
MANY YEARS AGO
DEEP DOWN IN THE SOUTH
A BABY BOY WAS BORN
HIS MOTHER WAS RATHER SURPRISED
AT THE SIZE OF HIS MOUTH
ONE DAY YOU’LL BE A SINGER
MY LITTLE BABY BOY
THAT IS JUST AS LONG
AS YOU GROW A LITTLE BIGGER
BUT YOUR HANDS SEEM SO STRANGE
THEY MIGHT HAVE TO BE REARRANGED
TO WORK THE RIGHT WAY AROUND
THE BOY GREW BIGGER
BUT ALWAYS KEPT HIS FINGER
ON THE TRIGGER
‘TILL ONE DAY AT SCHOOL
SOMEONE SAID
MAYBE HE’S JUST A FOOL
NOT SO FAST WITH YOUR JAW
SAID THE BOY
I HAVE A NEW NAME
IT IS SOUTHPAW
THE BOY GREW BIGGER
BUT HIS HANDS STAYED THE SAME
BUT HE WAS STILL ON TOP OF HIS GAME
THEN HE DISCOVERED MUSIC
AND WENT IN SEARCH OF A STORE
THAT COULD SELL HIM A GEE’TAR
MADE SPECIALLY FOR A SOUTHPAW
LOOK LEFT, LOOK RIGHT
THIS GEE’TAR GAVE ME SUCH A FRIGHT
BUT TO ME
THIS IS A FINAL DELIGHT
MANY YEARS PASSED
UNTIL HE MET A GIRL
WHO PUT HIM IN SUCH A WHIRL
THAT HE HAD NO CHOICE
BUT TO USE HIS VOICE
TO UTTER THE FATEFUL WORDS
I DO, I DO, I DO
LIFE WAS GOOD
A HOUSE WAS BOUGHT
BELIEVE IT OR NOT
THEY NEVER EVEN FOUGHT
UNTIL ONE DAY
WHEN THE WORLD COLLAPSED
THE BANK CAME KNOCKING ON THEIR DOOR
FORCLOSURE MY MAN
WE ARE GOING TO SEAL YOUR FRONT DOOR
OH NO YOU WON’T
YOU DON’T SEEM TO REALIZE
I AM CALLED – SOUTHPAW
AND THE FIRST MAN THRU’ MY DOOR
WILL FEEL IT ON THE JAW
THE BANK WAS BEATEN
THEY LEFT IN HASTE
NEVER TO TRY AGAIN AND ENTER
THE FRONT DOOR
OF THE MAN WHO SAID
I AM SOUTHPAW
Well done to you for taking on the big guns and beating them - maybe you would dig to put chords to the above ''poem'', or maybe you could send it to the bank in question, just to let them know that your support base is worldwide, maybe you could sing it to the bank manager over the phone. lol
