THE SCAPEGOAT

THE SCAPEGOAT

For my fun and games
I'm so glad that you came
For shame is your duty..
As you take all my blame

So I welcome you now
With open arms
You see here..my friend
Are the one my plan harms

And for obvious reasons
I'll pay you right now
Rest assured
This is my solemn vow

Good luck to you fool
I'm glad it's you and not me
But if you get caught
Plead the insanity plea.

Labelled Insane....
The Asylum has named..
You..!
The next victim...
A crazy man's fame.

As the scapegoat...
You'll do...
What I won't...!
Straight in the jacket
YOU..!
Now wear  the coat...!

Hi Carey......I love most everything of yours ......but this is a gem .........remind me not to get on your bad side...........A crazy man's fame kinda threw me........is that a reference to Heath Ledger's character........that is him in the photo isn't it?.........just wonderin'.............loved this........and yes I'd opt for the insanity plea..........smiles..............T  xx
