I was blown out, shown the door,
walked across an empty floor.
I was thrown out for the sin
of talking back to a man in black
who said ‘Hey son, cut the crap,
around here you gotta be
quids in.’
Got a job,
a dismissal,
a new car
and a whistle,
but then again
to my surprise:
I was blown out, shown the door,
walked across an empty floor.
Would I lie to you?
Quids in.
