Bottled Up Blues

Nov 27, 2022

Hello there, how are you?
- I guess I’m doing fine

I haven’t, seen you,
for such a long time.

You don’t look, different,
Same smile on your face

But what you, doing,
Standing in this place?

I’ve come here, to find me,
some sugar daddy, who will,
buy me, some dresses
and maybe some, pretty lace

It’s been a long time
Since I last saw you.
you got wrinkles on your skin
But you’re bulging in the right place.

Your pockets overflowing with
the proceeds you’ve got from him
But your body, beneath it,
is looking so thin.

Why don’t you, come with me,
we’ll have some fun again.
Well, thanks but, I’m meeting,
my old man at ten.

It’s all right, don’t worry,
You’ve found a place where you’re at.
I’d better, get going,
to meet my chick at her flat.

It’s been a long time.
Since I last saw you.
We’ve both found a new scene,
to dig our bottled up blues…
