I used to march around the playground with my friends |
|
Yelling we hate girls and now, all's well that ends well |
|
And there's so much to be said for fresh starts and second chances |
|
In a world of scary monsters and high tech advances, |
|
I try to do what |
|
I do with love instead of with anger |
|
And sometimes |
|
I bite my nails 'cause real life is a cliffhanger |
|
What with only seconds left at the end of the 10th hour |
|
We got emergency ways to respond to the |
|
Nth power |
|
The alloys are light weight and increasingly durable |
|
But as far as |
|
I'm concerned, the original is preferable |
|
I'm stubborn that way, |
|
I piss while humanity waits |
|
My motto wouldn't fit on a set of vanity plates |
|
The watch in my pocket may be indeed old and tarnished |
|
But at least |
|
I can raise my hand without a shoulder harness |
|
You know I can easily replace my lungs with a respirator |
|
My parents with a |
|
TV and my staircase with an escalator |
|
But, my life revolves around the spherical orbit of earth |
|
And it ends forever with the miracle moment of birth |
|
On the first day of spring |
|
I start work on the fall edition |
|
And decide for myself who's a thief and who's a politician |
|
It's two different things on different pages of the calendar |
|
I gauge the way |
|
I react on the age of my challengers |
|
I row my boat gently against the current and |
|
I believe |
|
In real life and death experience, and keeping and even keel |
|
The older i get, the more life makes sense and the less |
|
I care. What's that |
|
Dim, Stop that racket (2X) |
|
Damn that noise, |
|
I'll kill them all |
