Quid Pro Quo

Week 38

I'll do the yard work,
if you'll do the cleaning,
a quid pro quo appeal

what's right is right,
what's fair is fair,
they'll tell you it's a steal

it's fifty-fifty,
but you'll do ninety,
keep up with all demands

so stay with him,
or take your leave,
the choice is in your hands

~ P

A flimflam mans idea of equal
Where the wealthy "Providers" leach t'other
And gifts will require a reverse sequel
A mental tax for helping eachother

The way yours and mine both are held alone
As two seperate things the be exchanged
To ensure they maintain the right to own
All because no fair share can be arranged
