The versions of me
The versions of myself
cannot be put on a shelf.
they cannot be in a room
or swept up by a broom.
Some say that there are many
but I ask them have they seen any?
they search their mind all the day
I wait and wait until the month of may.
they cannot think of any
and I say thats because I haven't got many.
Im as real with you as real can be
I'll tell you im not fake you see
if I were to be as such
I would be wore out as an old man's touch
keepIng all you thinking i'm something i'm not
would just keep me from my creative thoughts
coming up with lies to tell you
would make me feel like i've not held true.
I am myself and if you don't like it
thats okay with me becuase i've still got my wit.
so if youd take me in such true words
I tell you now you haven't heard of anything obsurd.
I promise you i will always be true
becuase it makes me feel new.
