It's (2)____________ a (3)________ or swim

And chisel a marble word
But all is lost if it's never heard
But I've got someone to (6)________ reports
That (7)________ me how my money's spent
To (8)________ my stays and draw my plans
So I can't (9)________ what's really there
And all I need's a (10)__________ big:

Dusk and dawn (17)__________________ and Baldwins
You start (18)________ a (19)____________ (20)__________ of all the waste
And salt to taste
But damn my luck and damn these friends
That (21)________ on combing (22)________ their smiles
I save my grace with half-assed guilt
And lay (23)________ the (24)__________ (25)________ the lawn
Spread my arms and soak up:
