Said the landlord, “Miss, do bear in mind…
If, perchance, you were that way inclined…
Don’t mistake my intent…
You’re behind in your rent,
And I’d gladly take payment in kind.”

When the landlord dropped round to remind
Her, the rent was now two weeks behind,
She looked so damn distressed,
In the doorway, half-dressed,
That he said he’d take payment in kind.
