Money lender......beware!

davidbrailsford

Money lender Mr nice guy

Warm handshake and honest grin

If you need it he'll supply it

SO THE SLEEPLESS NIGHTS BEGIN 

 

Soon with money in your pocket

Money lenders heaven sent

Now you have it all on credit 

Plenty left to pay the rent

 

Money lender in your interest 

Now he's knocking on your door 

Pay him back what you have borrowed

Then you pay him back some more

 

Soon with holes in all your pockets 

Money lenders not so nice

You forget to read the small print

So begins the sacrifice 

 

Money lender Mr tough guy

Two clenched fists and ice cold stare

Rest assured he won't forget you

Not until the cupboards bare

 

Soon you'll have no one to turn to

Nothing left nowhere to hide

Money lenders knock knock knocking

Alas the law is on his side.

    An entertaining way of looking at a very serious subject, many people go down this route and there is no way out, poignant and well written write

  • sorenbarrett

    A fun read about a not so fun topic. Never borrow is the rule of thumb if you don't have it to pay today why would you have it tomorrow?
    Well written and a pleasure to read.

    so poignant and so true - they suck your blood and leave you high and dry - and you wonder why you approached them
