A Poem
[Verse 1]
A poem is a song that no one cares about
Except the writers of the songs that we're all singin'
And songs are just commercials for awful, ugly people
Who want your money, and your attention, and all your love

[Refrain]
And if you don't give it to them, they'll starve
If you don't give it to them, they'll starve to death
If you don't give it to them, they'll starve to death and that's alright

[Verse 2]
A poem is a song that no one cares about
Except the writers of the songs that we're all singin'
And songs are just commercials for self-important assholes
Who want the power and the money and the other good stuff you're bringing

[Refrain]
And if you don't give it to them, they'll starve
If you don't give it to them, they'll starve to death
If you don't give it to them, they'll starve to death and that's alright
They'll starve to death and that's alright
They'll starve to death and that's alright
