A Spare Dime

Oh, Money Fairy
Won't you come to our aid?
Our pockets are empty
And we are yet to be paid.

I know that money
Doesn't grow on trees,
But I'm begging you,
Money Fairy, please.

There's barely enough food
To put on the table.
To pay all our bills
We are not able.

Please help us
With a bit of bread
Just so that
My family can be fed.

We cannot survive on
Just a hug and love.
For my family
That could never be enough.

Please, Money Fairy
I beg of you,
Please will you see
What you could do?

I beg you for
Your help today.
So, Money Fairy,
What do you say?
