Tryin' T' Figg'r It Out

"Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion. I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward."

~Tryin' T' 'Figg'r It Out~

by Duncan Cary Palmer

Day in, day out,
I try t' figg'r it out.

'Dem otha' folk seem to know
How to git by. Why cain't I?

Like 'dey sez, "If you so dam' smart,
Why ain't you rich?
Figger'n' t'ings out's a bitch...

Maybe t'morra...
Maybe t'morra I'll figg'r out what t' do.
Yeah, maybe t'morra...

How 'bout you?
You got 'dis t'ing figg'rd out?
