Erm... Eighth grade crap III.

This is a song, written in early 2007. My brother was playing some unknown video game, and started yelling at a guy in a subway he was walking through. He said "Hey, Mister Subway!" and suddenly this popped into my head.

Mister Subway

Hey Mister Subway
Old black hat and a worn brown jacket
Hey Mister Subway
Playing that music that most would call racket

Hey Mister Subway
You ask for a penny, I’ll give you a dime
Hey Mister Subway
Your days have seen and lost their prime

Hey Mister Subway
Painting on the walls, over all the writing
Hey Mister Subway
When the conductor strolls past, your tongue you are biting

Hey Mister Subway
Does your lady believe that you have a job?
Hey Mister Subway
Every day you come home and say you were robbed

Chorus
Hey Mister Subway
Riding that train’s been getting you nowhere
Barely got the fares for another time through
Missus Subway’s been looking for you

Hey Mister Subway
You’re licking your lips and wiping your eyes
Hey Mister Subway
Food for you is the ultimate prize

Hey Mister Subway
You started out nowhere and you’re back again
Hey Mister Subway
I’m sure that someone would lend you a hand

Hey Mister Subway
You have a blue face and you like to cry
Hey Mister Subway
It seems like you’re about to die

Hey Mister Subway
You’re fifty-nine and counting, now
Hey Mister Subway
Your story is through, so take a bow

Chorus
Hey Mister Subway
Riding that train’s been getting you nowhere
Barely got the fares for another time through
Missus Subway’s been looking for you
