Please don't burn our shit-house down, <br /> Mother has promised to pay. <br /> Father's away on the ocean wave, <br /> And sister's in the family way, <br /> Brother dear has gonorrhea, <br /> And times is fucking hard. <br /> So please don't burn our shit-house down, <br /> Or we'll all have to shit in the yard.<br /><br />Anonymous Americas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/times-is-hard/
