yuppie begging bowl

passerby please note us
stuck on camera lens close up
pray our your shell out fills
latte foam bowl slow mo
cash flow scene slow pan
cut broke balance fixated
roll plastic survivance level
bank machine movie stake out

treaty bowl number one
fun filled topped up intrigue
warranty less years but ears
clear new diction air words
cotton swab stuck syndrome
block drumming manifesto

step up to bowl number two
white shiny to let us bowl
real tight ass titan squirm
condo minimum convenience
bowling down alley strikes
we're good check the gate
missing heirs women split
