Me, Myself and I

A woman walks past herself  
She stuck out her tongue, said boo  
She smiled about paying dues  
Proudly shook her head and left  
   
I am me, myself and I  
She said to all who could hear  
Three of us you might think queer  
We feel so good I could cry  
   
The me tells me what to know  
A prudent person, you see  
Of all three me has the key  
From me goodness it does flow  
   
Myself holds dark secrets near  
Sometimes myself lets them rise  
A wicked wink, flash of thighs  
If nothing else a glass of beer  
   
I am selfish, it’s my flaw  
I love myself, yes I do  
To my own self I am true  
To what I am, I'm in awe  
   
A woman walks to her room  
Sits down in a chair and smiles  
Oh the ones she does beguile  
Takes all three to make her bloom
