        If I wanna get laid...

        I owe,

        Oh, how much I owe!

        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

                  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

                    Violets are blue

                    I've given up

                    How about you?

                      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

                                Democracy is a lie

                                Fascism is Liberalism, but when white people die
