Wimpy's Hustle

I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today.

The motto of a legend

The mantra of a manipulator

The phrase of a master

To get what he wanted

A morsel of a juicy

Tasty

Seasoned

Quarter pound of ground beef

People knew he was a moocher

A degenerate

A hustler

A man who would stretch the truth

Tell a lie

Sell his mother for a nickel

Just to get his favorite delicacy

So he schmoozed them

Charmed them with his humor

Played an inevitable game

To get what he wanted

Whether it be Popeye

Rough House

Olive Oyl

Or the various cast of characters

And in the end of the day

No matter the situation

He always got what he wanted

A hamburger

On the house
