in trouble

I went up the creek for a bit of a peak

They thought I was a creep

I said I just wanted to meet

They said you had better beat

I thought it sounded so neat

But don't call me cheap

I found my feet

They said you can keep

But I said I am not a cheat

That is not a nice way to greet

Is this what you seek

They still thought I was a cheat

This is what might happen if you ever find yourself up the creek
