Chapter 50 - Office Lackey

Lately I keep getting commissioned

To write more Scripts

Paint yet more canvases

Dance another step

And spit another rhyme

Or pound another beat

Explaining when someone says

The famous author refused their pen

A musician runs out of rhythm

Some painter's paint dries up

'Tough' lyricists get tongue tied

Or dancers are afraid of stamping on the ground

That I only get a pat on the back

After picking up their slack

And frankly I'm tired of getting no recognition shown

While they gossip of consummation

Leaving me to work alone

If you plan to keep me

Then better stop shuffling your feet

You're about to have another empty designation

Only two steps away from handing in my resignation

Then you really will have to find a new office lacky
