sonagachi, etc

money can buy so many things
that some time i fear
i can sell everything


and then i remember
money and me
we are old enemies


we had our first fight
when my mom sold me off to aunt
i was bought for just two hundred bucks
i was angry, i am atleast worth a crore (tai na?)
i did not talk with money for a year and a half
but i live and cry and breathe
and i was too hungry finally
so
that time 
money won the fight




we had our second fight
when my aunt sold me off to my manager
now i do not mind being sold off
i mean, after the first time, 
i am now kind of okay with it
but i do not like this manager
three of his girls were murdered last month
thats why
he was giving a better price
my aunt could not resist
(she gets hungry too, you see)
and money again won the fight
that time
i did not talk with money for three  nights


since then,
we have been having our fights
we fight
i do not talk
money wins
i eat my dinner


each night
i lose to money


each night
i am on sale
because some one always has the money


each night
i am all yours
because you always have the money




yes
everything is on sale
but you cannot kiss me


yes
each night i am all yours
but you cannot kiss me


this is how i fight money !
this is how i still have a soul - untouched by money !
