begging for tips

dear landlord

have you ever served food to tall dark handsome men in suits

trading business cards and trading

well practiced handshakes too

call you buddy

call you friend

call them sir with a big grin

begging for tips is still begging just the same

have you ever stripped for money

perverts staring at your body

double chins dripping with drool

and their hard-ons poking through

call you baby

call you friend

call them sir with a big grin

begging for tips is still begging just the same

have you ever played guitar on the street in some town afar

grubby hands on rusted strings or what's left of your last three

give you pity

call you friend

call them sir with a big grin

begging for tips is still begging just the same

have you ever served food to tall dark handsome men in suits

trading business cards and trading

well practiced handshakes too

call you buddy

call you friend

call them sir with a big grin

i swear i'll never feel this small again

begging for tips is still begging just the same
