Change

wouldn't you, couldn't you spare me a dime
the world is in peril I haven't got time
to explain the evils against us
are vast and unknown in darkness and scope
but with a dollar from you and
perhaps a bit more we can take them
to church oh praise the almighty! yes!
I do take checks so write me
one now for your home and your farm and
your children as well won't you think of
them now how we must save the world
I can't do it alone I need you by my side
with your wallet wide open but do shut your eyes
for the mess I am cleaning is ugly and large
just trust me and pay me and put me in charge
you know i'm not scheming against you! oh no!
that's what they'll tell you! they're liars you know!
more money please now or they'll sell you on taxes
but give me your change and
I'll stop them with quibbles so strange and arcane
we cannot relax yet
I know you are hurting
but this is important
we must stay strong to be one day rewarded
by God or at least by Saint Nick
now give me more money! step to it! be quick!
