          Don't let your dreams just be memes!

            Aesthetically, I don't like ABBB for "Roses are red...". ABCB is fine, ABBB feels too forceful. And the plurals just turn it into half rhymes anyway. How about :

            Roses are red

            I used to have dreams

            Work is a drag

            But I guess I have memes

              Roses are red

              Violets are blue

              I've given up

              How about you?

                I get that paid and laid rhyme, but it's sort of a stretch to connect getting laid to getting paid.

                I mean there are plenty of unemployed and unemployable people getting action.
                maybe like

                Burn the midnight oil

                So I don't eat soil

                I’ve previously heard:

                I owe, I owe, it’s off to jail I go
                Don’t ever mess with the IRS
                I owe! I owe, I owe, I owe!

                  I thought our work song was:

                  🎶"I owe, I owe, It's off to work I go!"🎶

                      Boss makes a dollar,

                      I make a dime.

                      That's why I doo-doo

                      on company time.

                        https://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/Fercris-Hart-1/Boss-Made-a-Dollar-I-Made-a-Dime

                        Boss made a dollar, I made a dime

                        That was a rhyme from a simpler time

                        Now boss makes a thousand and gives me a cent

                        When I′m an employee who can't pay my rent

                        When the boss makes a million and us workers make jack

                        That′s when I protest and take my life back

                        Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime

                        That's why I shit on company time

                        Boss makes a billion, my prospects are grim

                        Next company party, I'm gonna eat him

                        When the boss makes a million and us workers make jack

                        That′s when we riot and take our lives back

                        We make a penny, the boss makes fifteen

                        Guess who′s in line for the guillotine

                        Boss made a dollar, we made a dime

                        Til' we went to his mansion and burned him alive

                          Roses are red

                          Democracy is a lie

                          Fascism is Liberalism, but when white people die
