Getting My Act Together
It's been awhile
I'm finally tired of it all
I'm going to find my act and get it together
I look inside of the drawer
Where I know I've seen it before
But it's no longer there... go figure
I then search the high shelf
Where it once hung out
But after years all there is is dust
So I look a few shelves below
Where these days it might go
But once again no such luck
So I head to the mall
Where they sell it all
To get myself a brand new act
But the ones that I see
Are too pricey for me
So after fighting the crowds I left
That's when I saw the store
"Discount Bargain's Galore"
I hit the brakes and went back inside
They had mega shelves stacked
With half price discount acts
Only problem...assembly required
I went and purchased a few
Well actually two
In case I lose my act along the way
I took them both home
And now wish I had known
Buying better, the headaches I'd saved
First off the instructions were missing
So it was like in the wind I was *******
That's what I did when I had my old act
With a hammer and plenty of glue
And a couple left over loose screws
I put my act back together at last
Now that my act is together
Since you ask...yes I am feeling better
Going to grab life by the reins and just do it
With my act now in the bag
Going to give it all that I have
As soon as I find what I did with my
"Round To It"
