Some fools will try to chop off the hand that helps them, show no appreciation whatsoever.
After all the years
it surely appears
That I would like to
exchange my
helping hand
with a big foot
in some azz
and this feeling
won't pass
99 percent of the fools
I've ever tried to help
given up my money
and my time
have treated me
like slime
This includes friends
and family Zeus
they're the ones that
dish out the worse abuse
What's wrong with
the fools
seems like the devil
always drools
Great phony god Zeus
I make no excuse
I finally figured who
had the real problem
Yours truly me myself
and I
for not letting the suckers
pass on by
Should have kept my
money in my pocket
Been like Davy Crocket
King of the wild
frontiers
cause sometimes this
is just the way life is
I should have treated
them all like grizzly bears
said phuckum and
had no cares
