Cup Overflowing
© 2023 Jeff Jackson
If cabin pressure falls
Oxygen mask will drop
Make sure your mask’s secure
Pull that elastic tight
‘Cause you might run out of air
Before you help your friend
Seems like a selfish act
What about that Golden Rule?
But you can’t help someone
When your running out of air
So take some time to breathe it in
What does your dashboard say?
Where is your gas gauge at?
400 miles to E
Or do you coast on fumes?
You won’t get very far
Unless you exit right
But you’re making real good time
Can’t stop to take a break
But you can’t get back home
When your tank is outta gas
So take some time to fill it up
A wise one told me always
check what’s in my cup
Keep it replenished,
never finish all you got
She said I can’t pour nothing
from the foamy dregs
Skim from the top,
make sure your cup still overflows
Make sure your battery’s charged
Don’t wait to plug it in
You’re on low power mode
You’re down to 1 percent…
