verse of vice: an original

Don't be ashamed when you get caught throwing glass from your stone house
You grouse, no doubt cuz it's a home to write nothing about
Put your mouth where your money is, all the while quiet as a mouse
Cuz the scheme paid off and you've got to get your cut worked out
You paid Paul to rob Peter then showered him with silver and gold
He's a thief among honours, have you ever seen a coward so bold
The young die good man, and you've never been so old
A short day, a late dollar, before you know it your soul's been sold
You tried to lick the blues, but somehow your tongue got the cat
Eyes fall from your scales as the joke goes, cuz you look so fat
You don't dress the part man, they're calling you "big cattle, no hat"
and as choosers can't be beggars, someday you're gonna pay for that
You went outside on the wrong bed that night after leaving the bar
Always a bride, never a maid, all the way, you know it's never too far
She did more than eye the meat, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more
now there's a spot on your johnny and there ain't no way to settle the score
You're a prick without a rose, you're too cool to ask for a dance
Been too proud to play the fool since the movement put pants on your aunts
But it's easier done than said if you get past your first glance
Cuz the spirit is weak but the flesh will always take a chance
After three winds in the sheet it might be time for you to lay low
You pulled your ass out of the numbers and let your bottom line show
But there's a hole in your ace, and you're the only one who doesn't know
and that safe hand of pairs ain't enough to pay the piper to blow
