According to Joe
Joe Gedan



These dues are hard to pay

I pay my dues to the HMSA
And then my medical bills they pay.
Its cash flow doesn't seems that great
And its response is to raise my rate.
But last week's news has me troubled.
By a half a million the chief's salary's doubled.
They say nonprofit, but it's mighty funny
Executive profiteering when I'm losing money?
