Timothy 6:10 for the love of money.............

The girl who I love has gone quite money mad
From a 'have not' she's turning right into a 'have'
To be really broke is no kind of joke
But the cost of these riches is proving quite sad

Her passion no longer is fuelled by her need
More by a raging, raw, rampant greed
She does a good job of that there's no doubt
But sometimes I question what that job's about

If value for money's the name of the game
I guess she should try to treat all men the same
But, of course, in this capitalist world that we live
Some men have very much more they can give

So she offers much more to the rich funded punter
Her body and heart she puts into th'encounter
Or so she says, though of course it's not true
Her heart's not for sale, as he'll later rue

She sweeps up his money and with no further ado
Breaks his spirit, his bank, leaves his heart split in two

So the question I ask is "just how many Baht
Does it take to repay, for a man's broken heart.
In all these transactions does love never linger
Or am I alone just a single sad singer."
