So you can go to work

I seem to be needing a new wallet
Mine’s rather old, admittedly I’ve been faithful to it
I have just enough money to buy one, that much I admit
The problem is I’m broke and down to my last ringgit
If I go and purchase one, there’ll be nothing left in my pocket
The new wallet will be moot, for I have no money to keep in it.

Life is a hoot in all its day-to-day pointlessness
You get a wife, she gets on your nerves
You take out a loan on a car so you can go to work
But you forget that you got the job so you can pay the dealership jerk
Most people soften it with religion, the rest with hard liquor
Thus I’m left with the full brunt of life’s confusion, for I subscribe to neither.
