The Get Over Kings

The Get Over Kings

They think they are smart

They so desperately want to be forever clever

They play games with friendship but, often get found out and fouled out by their own surreptitious rules and, that’s with each and every endeavor

They consistently put in the absolute least amount of effort but, hope and expect the greatest amount of gain in return

They look for money dancing in the streets but, fail to hear the song singing, “Earn it or Burn”

They have unparalleled skill at inventing, contriving and just outright making up excuses[1]

They will break their necks in order not to say anything positive about someone for fear it might boost someone’s self-esteem, something they are low in or, just don’t have.  They will, with great consternation dispute this

They are expert squanderers of time.  If you make any good use of yours they will label you “weird” and, glare at you with an odd angry stare

They will concentrate and calculate every cent that they think that you’ve got.  Never will they ask how you came into making a lot.  They don’t care

They are demons of jealousy.  They will offer to party with you just before an audition

They promote failure?  This goes without saying.  It’s a family tradition

They think they are smart
