Mafia SongA Poem by Kyle W. HuntYes it is a song about the MafiaTall, blazen, covered in blue Black suit and well groomed too You’ve got me on the ground Kneeling for the sound of relief Tinted windows, embroidered guns Loan sharks with their dirty funds Got me begging for mercy Thirsty for retribution, institution-alize me… Kneecaps a few when funding is due So take it from me, your referee On the game of dirty money (chorus) All my days are numbered yet Follow the path to pass the test And hear my soul whispering in your ear We’ll make sure you never escape your fear Moustache, slick hair, tie of red A gun held up says what needs to be said We’ll find what needs to be found For we’re a profound organization Classy brothels, tapped-out hoes We crack knuckles and break your toes Won’t you break out the herses Your purses won’t pay the fines for the lines you buy Green turned to red, the city has fled To the sea, unable to pay their fee Just simply to be (chorus) All my days are numbered yet Follow the path to past the test And hear my soul whispering in your ear We’ll make sure you never escape your fear (attempt at bridge) Heroism is a trait Stoicism ain’t But its all we have So fancy a chance to dance….with the Mafia Rough, chiseled, down with the dogs Line them up like a row of logs Shoot them down without a fight A bark less than its bite Rose petals, dusty drawers Another group of office w****s Begging me for money But honey you’re dead to me Look up to the boons for the festering wounds Placed on your back, you lack Something, as a matter of fact (chorus) All my days are numbered yet Follow the path to past the test And hear my soul whispering in your ear We’ll make sure you never escape your fear © 2011 Kyle W.
