The “truth”…..
Five o’clock….it’s time to arise,
Just ten more minutes….to rest my eyes?
Ten past five….but I don’t need to shave
Just five more minutes….I’m feeling brave!
Five fifteen….I’ll have to be quick,
I’ve fifteen minutes to call in sick!
Half past five….I’ll walk to the tram,
It’s running early and nearly….damn!
Sorry boss….I’ll be late by an hour
There was a problem with my shower
Add that to the issues I have with my bell
The tram was late too….I’m going through hell!
…..The “whole truth”…..
Well, boss I was punctual, I got up quite okay
When all of a sudden the wind blew me away
As I landed I saw in the distance a fire
So I ran to save kids with their want to aspire
I gathered their kittens with cute bright blue eyes
In a box that I found full of awe and surprise
Still I carried that box on my shoulders to safety
that’s why I am late; a hero; well maybe!
So I’m sorry I helped our community spirit,
As I tried to inspire all of those who live in it,
Yes, I’m late but only because of my acts,
I’m not lying boss!, yes these are the facts!
…..and nothing but the “truth”
I don’t care for your tone if I’m going to be late,
Just shut the hell up or the hospital awaits!
If you try warnings you’ll live to regret it
You are MY puppet and don’t you forget it!
I am the daddy….the REAL power here
You will live in my shadow, live with your fear
I don’t live for you….you’ll just have to wait!
Oh yeah by the way….I’m going to be late!

Very nice, and humorous! I'm sure people
can relate all too well, except for maybe
telling off their bosses, although that's
probably a fantasy for many. Nice job.
