The ScavengerÊÊÊ
By Ben Haney
Palm mute when playing
G
A scavenger is disguised to be
C
A friend neighbor or your family
You never know what their intentions are
Could be money, food, or a ride in your car
I wrote this song to make you aware
That scavengers are around and everywhere
DonÕt be the next person deprived
Listen to these words and you may survive
D C
You just got home from the grocery store
The next thing you hear is a knock on the door
You open it up and who could it be
But your shadyass neighbor smiling happily
He comes on in before you invite him
He heads for the kitchen just a little excited
He grabs a brand new bag of chips
Looks in the fridge for the bean dip
He goes and sits in your favorite seat
Grabs the remote and turns on the TV
Puts all the food down on the table
He tells you he forgot to pay his cable
He asks if you got anything to drink
As he looks at the 12 pack on the sink
9 beers and a bag of chips later
You get the guts to kick out your neighbor
The next time he tries to come over
Tell him to turn around and bendover
Kick him in the ass and say go away
Tell him itÕs the end of his scavenger days

DonÕt be mistaken over what IÕve said
There women out there who are just as bad
They pride themselves on their deception
Finding drunk guys with no sober perception
They show their cleavage and they wink their eyes
Wearing short skirts that show their thighs
Flirting with men and telling them theyÕre strong
To get free drinks all night long
Looks on their faces are sorrow and sad
To keep you from closing out your tab
To rid these girls it doesnÕt take a lot
Use a little psychological thought
When a girl walks up begins her persuasion
Start off with an intelligent conversation
SheÕll twiddle her hair and have a blank face
ItÕs a perfect example of a scavenger case

Now everyoneÕs done this once or twice
But a scavenger does it his whole damn life
Never tries to pay you back of course
Has no regret or feelings of remorse
I couldnÕt tell you bout everyone in detail
Remember it could be a man or a female
The ones that ask you out to eat
They forget their money so its always your treat
The guy who never brings his own beer
Cause every stores closed from his place to here
I could sit up here and sing all night
Hope that you take some of my advice
I wrote this song to make you aware
That scavengers are around theyÕre everywhere
DonÕt be the next person deprived
Listen to these words and you may survive.
