“Bad News”

Stuck inside, change your view!

Pick up the paper, read the news.

Look for names, we all know.

See the questions, the answers no!

Gone are the nights, freezing and cold!

Birthday’s come, I’m twenty years old.

Jackie called, her visit cut short.

She leaves tomorrow, for city court!

To pay a fine, that leaves her broke.

We’ll see the roads, all lined with oak.
