The Club On The Corner

Illegal lap dances,
a little business on the side,
underage libations;
 
Yep, it all happened
and no one said a word.
Why should they?
 
It was all in good
hush-hush fun.
But in this town,
 
a place where they
try their darndest
to make it as
 
family friendly as the
pretty pictures displayed
on the interstate billboards,
 
they shut it all down,
even made the owner
float down the county
 
streams in jailbird orange.
That way the city streams
could stay clear to let the
 
leaders wash their hands
clean.  But no matter
what may come next to that
 
club on the corner,
no one will ever strip away
its naughty side.

Yeah it will always be there, sometimes one just has to look a little harder.
