I live in a room where time stands still I have been sick of late I have need to take yet another pill They don't really do any thing to help But I keep hoping that they will.
Sometimes I think that I am as dead as I am ever going to be That is if I still wake up tomorrow I am bright enough to see To whom it is I bless And just where it is I bring sorrow I keep wishing for good health For that I would beg steal or borrow.
I dream the craziest of dreams Last night I caught my mentor mixing metaphor Watch me go 'round in circles I've got one foot nailed to the floor I stand in a room made of mirror I see myself clearly Yet I start out looking for the door.
I woke up and started drinking today That is the only relief I get When I go around town smelling like alcohol I'm not exactly teacher's pet But I will live to uncork another bottle Oh on that one you can bet.
I'll always give you the truth you see On that you can depend Even if I tell you a lie over coffee While sipping my special blend Later I will type 'what is what' you see But I won't proofread before I send.
