Limbo, ahhhhhh!

Phil ListerLeave a comment

I’m in limbo, frustration constantly

Knot in my stomach waiting impatiently

Awaiting the days just to trickle past

Feeling like a novel, feeling, well, alas

Annoyed, biting into my hands

Each meal I eat increasingly bland

Ahhhhhhh I want to scream would it help?

If I punch myself and make myself yelp?

Tell me please I need to know

Why this constant suffering, this woe?

Trying to read, play, sleep even clean

Lol the last time I did, the floor actually gleaned

Motivation zero, what is even the point?

Nothing will make it better, not even a joint

What will I do? What choice do I have?

Just bloody sit here and hope it will not last

To be harassed #metoo

You know what you need to do

If you want to succeed

Succumb to me

And my sexual greed

I will make you famous

Do what I ask

Fulfill my pleasures

That is your task

Look at you

So innocent and young

Just a little massage

Let’s have some fun

The world is such a disgusting place

That I will abuse

My place of money and power 

Until you will accuse

That is years down the line

I have all the time I need

You are nothing for the moment

I will make you bleed

Waiting for payday

Phil Lister2 Comments

Waiting for payday to come

Fifth of the month

Some breathing space

To change the pace

Thirty days to last

Pity it goes so fast

It’s already gone

The account overdrawn

What will we do?

Go without food?

Stumble on

Ooh what fun

To do it again

Not know when

Things could change?

Wouldn’t that be strange

Come on be real

This banana peel

Used to it by now

My daily scowl

Stress itching me

Bizarre feeling really

Day in day out

Feel like I wanna shout

What good would it do?

I may feel better, true

Ahhhhhhhhhhh that’ll do

That’s my point of view

Positive thinking

Phil Lister17 Comments

Are you feeling down, world against you?

Pickled in turmoil in boggy stew

Life throws us curved balls, cogs in wheels

Hide if you will or dare to dig in your heels

What doesn’t kill you can only make you stronger

Use your mind, be creative, think a little bit longer

I may not be the best, you may be better than me

Hey hum, that’s life, your free to be free

Stuck in your job, no way to get out

Yes you can, they can do without

I am just a human in this immense universe

If you don’t fulfill your potential it’s even worse

You are great, you can lead

Others will listen and take heed

Change the world in a day may not be possible

But with positive thinking you are free and able.

Life sucks!

Phil ListerLeave a comment

When you’ve had a bad day

And you wonder which way

To go in your life

Because you’ve argued with the wife

Your kids hate you

It’s their point of view

That nothing is good enough

And that’s the way it is. Tough

Your job sucks like a wormhole

You don’t like your boss, the arsewhole

You can’t find another job

Cause your a lazy slob

Bills just don’t stop coming in 

Overdraft and credit cards sinned

Your car has broken down

Your face is starting to frown

Your phone is almost flat

Forgot to charge, what a twat.

That’s it, decided to quit?

Look at yourself and stop being a dick

My boss – I hate you!

Phil Lister16 Comments

Boss, we’ve all got one

Many of us are under the thumb

Let’s start with all the different types

Thoughtful, kind and sometimes nice

Controlling, demanding, asking a lot

Stressful, arrogant, losing the plot

It’s us doing the hours, working all day

While your chilling out, getting your pay

What do you actually do? I’ve not had my break!

Sitting there you, chilled, you great big mistake!

Look at all the work I have done for you

Thanks guy, I’ll pass it for mine, that’s true

There is one think that I’d like to say to you….

Your an arsehole, I quit, FUCK YOU!
