Parties Chime

Trevor McLeod

The month has ended and paydays here
for all who waited their monthly cheer
When some will say they're always broke
when spending money's daily hope

That those who spend in just one day
will say that money's meant for play
When debts go by for passing time
and governed earned are parties chime
