Grex Poetry Item 242: i work at the dollar tree
Entered by ignatz on Thu Mar 15 01:31:32 UTC 2001:

i work at the dollar tree, 
it's so fun that at times i think i'm gonna pee,
in my pants.
and that's not too good a feeling.
It's as bad as having your house infested with ants.

Long hours i slave away on the sales floor,
which's ok since receiving is a fire hazard and i can't get to the door.
and i get scared of the rats.
but i only keep those feelings inside me or else i'll, 
get made fun of and i run home crying to find the comfort of my cats.

but it's a fun job. there's the "hello may i help you?"
but the outfit turns my stomach and i wear it i really wanna spew.
but i clench my teeth and suck it in for another hour.
and by the time i leave i have this over bearing sensation,
you know, i'm good at what i do, and when i help i feel full of power.

but i guess i'm not too important there though,
shit i'm selling crap for a dollar only, cheaper than a cheap blow,
from the hooker that hangs outside and scares off the crowd.
cause she has buck teeth, a mullet and a wandering eyes,
gives me nightmares she does, and makes me scream out loud.

but at the end of the week, i get paid,
and i take my money looking for a real whore to get laid, 
but that scary bitch just follows me around, like a shadow,
but i go home and lock the door and am safe and free of work,
the week is over and everything is alright, you know...

Wow.  Yes.  Applause indeed.  

This could get taken the wrong way, but what the hell.  For some reason, I
can easily imagine this on an Eminem album.
