Must always be seen – forever on show
You often say yes – when you really mean no
You’ve got an ego the size of a whale
Your act is fake – the rhetoric’s stale

Don’t need the truth – why tell the lies
Whatever you say – it’s no surprise
Sweet smell of success for you is rancid
The question “what if” remains unanswered

You say it’s OK – but I read your eyes
Deep down inside you try to disguise
So, you laugh and bite – paint on a face
And leave no room for thinking space

The simulated mock demise
Of all those feelings you despise
Why spin a line in platitudes
When all you need is attitude

Give them attitude, make it sell
Summon all to share your hell
Remove the mask and give a yell
It’ time to leave your padded cell

Just be yourself – don’t try and fake it
Who knows, one day you could just make it?
Why fight to lose? – you may just win
True self belief is not a sin
