What would you do if you lost all your possessions?

It happened to me, it could happen to you

Lost my home & everything in it

My clothing, my books & my paintings too

Undeterred, I took the hit!

Six years on I have replaced my possessions

Living in The Salvation Army

No more evictions or repossessions

No landlord can ever harm me!

Stripped of my wardrobe, walls laid bare

An empty bookshelf to fill

The clothes on my back were all I had to wear

Oh the shopping was a thrill!

But I’d shower the sucker with sticks & stones

If he ever crossed my path

Beat him about & break all his bones

Yes he would feel my wrath!

I left a tap on, caused a flood

The reason for my eviction

If that landlord could kill me, yes he would

And end up with a conviction!
