he was a juvenile delinquent

He had a rep of hanging out

with his homies

Puffing on the blunts and

sipping on the forties

nobody would listen

And when he was home,

They called him a bum, a

worthless piece of shit

So over this he had a fit

And now he grabs his bag

and heads for the door

And walks to the neighborhood

liquor store

Pulls out a gun, tells the old man,

"Hit the floor!"

Then breaks open his register drawer
