Let Me

I was born in the war
Barb wire cleaves my back
Let me roll it

The cheap booze, the cigarettes
The dirty shoes, the eviction notice
Let me roll it

Let me roll it, let me try
Let me make you  
Let me die

Idiotic poesy, imbecile writers
Can it, schmuck! 
Let me smoke it 

The snobs, the ladies
Their dogs and their art
Let me smoke it

Spit on the bus seat
Spit on my home street
Just let me roll it

One, two, three, one
Back in their war 
Thank you one and thank you all
