A Working Man's Sharade

I see my reflection in friends, a pen scratches a checklist,
Touque and torn mittens, check, panhandling a deathwish,
Check. People toss biscuits, which I always take for granted
I never meant to be helpless, it just sort of...happened.
To sum it up in a sentence, would be beyond comprehension
Relieving some of the tension, I would leave an impression...
Wifey's not stressed about pension, now I've got the scratch
If a picture says 1000 words, how long will this sharade last?
The first half of my day, I preach lies and false exclamations
My wife thinks I've been promoted, working for our nation
But I steal with patience, tax scandals were never an option
With media watchin', you can't scam a convict at a police auction
So I turned to street talkin, for overtime pay from the oblivious
Escapin from from politics, usin my makeup kit to be inconspicious
Monday's I act hungry "Im starving, please, help out the needy..",
What I mean to say is "I need a big screen t-v, come on, im greedy!"
Stealin tax-payers money, now even the green of the homeless
With all the foodstamps I make, I can even recieve free lunches!
Following my hunches, I keep away from the actual unfortunate
Seen body's bend to pre-portion rations like they contortionists
Really I need to be aborting this, people are dying cause of me
Probably falling to their knees but I can't live without paws in green
So every day, a new scene, I wear a new wig, a new demonstration
I act homeless with patience, saving up for my dream vacations
But everytime I hear the phrases: "Empty your pockets or die bitch"
I think it's just another example of how politics lie to get rich.
