The Short Loan Shark

The Short Loan Shark

I have loaned plenty of money to people because I'm a loan shark.
But I've never been repaid because my bite isn't worse than my bark.
I only weigh eighty-four pounds and I stand four-feet-ten.
People kick the crap out of me, my bones are constantly having to mend. 
When I try to collect my money, I receive punches, kicks and smacks.
People know that they can kick my ass and I never get my money back.
When people beat me senseless, I go to the hospital after I see stars.
One of my clients pantsed me and threw me in front of a moving car.
One man pushed me off a roof and I landed in a truck loaded with hay.
One of my clients brained me with a frying pan when I went to his cafe. 
I have no more money to lend, now it's not only my bones that are broke.
I'm so poor that I don't have anything, I can't even afford to buy a coke. 
I've thrown punches at my deadbeat clients but all of them beat me up, I always get licked.
But because I'm broke, I can't be a loan shark anymore and I'll no longer get my ass kicked.
