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
|
