So You Come Undone?
You are bothered and tormented by my curses and words
throw excessive diatribes at me in reply
don't get the panties or whatever (if anything) is there in a bunch
and don't presume to judge this book by the cover
What makes you think these words are for you
are you really Carly Simon's inspiration in "You're So Vain"?
related to Louie XIV, the sun king
that bright thing in the sky is still going
and yet where is "Mr.France"
well I guess the Fab Four put him in a song
and even the sun is a star
in time it will go nova...
Theories and assumptions rule
as you try to dissect and improve everyone
easier then fixing yourself
counting the flaws that are all around
"Oh, you ain't me
And I ain't you
There's a hell of a difference
Between the two"
My words don't fit nicely in your little box
I don't want green eggs and ham
even with that silly fox
don't sugar coat the truth
'cause you have an aversion to pain
too many sycophants that can't stand the rain
"Yeah, I'm gonna tear it up
Gonna trash it up
Gonna round it up
Gonna rip it up
I will not lie down
Yeah I'm gonna tear it up"

thanks---my answer to the politically correct crowd. I get being respectful but sometimes the things that need to be addressed get glossed over.

This is such a cool clever vent. Let it on out. Enjoyed the different references . :)

Thanks---most of the time music that is sparked by anger includes loud instruments but every now and then something comes out that expresses the intense emotion without bombarding the ears with high decibels.
