Hypertension

Doctor said I got hypertension
I laughed when that was mentioned
MAYBE I NEED TO RELAX AND GO FISHING
MAYBE GET SOME EMPLOYMENT AND A PENSION
I’LL KEEP HOPING AND WISHING
EMPLOYERS JUST KEEP DISING
I WISH MY girl was here and not missing
Yet my dreams are the only place we kissing

She is long gone away
I’ll catch her on eighteen months from this day
There is so much I want to say
I wish she could have stayed
I wish my life turned out in a different way
Engineering led me astray
Five years ago, life was okay
I was looking forward to some big pay
Now I just kneel and pray

My situation is looking bleak
My heart is becoming weak
They tell me to be meek
Even give me a kiss on my cheek

Times are rough
I am sick of this stuff
Employers telling me that I am not good enough
I really want to tell them to hush
It’s not my style to huff and puff
So I just shut up

My situation is acute
My undergrad GPA was average, yet I am very astute
Employers often dispute
They are about to catch a boot
