Perfect In Everyway

You borrow to pay your Son's Education
in hopes he will get through, that tough
Dissertation...

you find yourself up to your neck in debt
the Collector has taken the rent...
it is difficult to remember the original
objective was to get to your son's Big
Event...

Wow!, to be quite honest, you explain!
I would truly over-extend again...
at the drop of the hat, never to complain

Son you must look foward
to where you're going
at the same time, you must
also look aft...

for where you did come from
as to see all this money...
was truly well spent ~ for you
not a DATE ~ you wanted at your Prom!
