Synopsis

Lloyd's Prayer

My father you know I'm only seven.

Howard be my last name.

My Mama has come home-

I don't know what I've done.

She went to buy a loaf of bread.

Now that she's back from 7-Eleven.

Please forgive me for trying to pass

the football and forgive those

who tried to pass the football to me.

Lead us into my room for PlayStation-

but call us when the pizza is delivered

(it's under my Mama name, Gloria).

'Cause my Mama house is clean and

she needs time to shower

but not forever and ever.

Amen.
