I bought a new dress you know,
it's deep red and lightly patterned,
it looks lovely on,
the perfect shape and style,
respectable but trendy,
not another make-do,
I tried it you know,
I had to,
that dress has a purpose,
I bought new shoes,
they're black you know,
same as my royal blue ones,
but a better colour match,
Why did I buy it I hear you say,
what is your purpose,
it's as if I can read your mind,
I have an interview,
a new job,
I do declare,
don my new dress,
my heel less shoes,
dye my greying hair,
I want this job,
more than anything,
it's more my cup of tea,
hee hee,
I need a little knowledge,
I have a bit of that,
A bucket of understanding,
I have buckets more than most,
a touch of empathy,
a wow amount of confidence,
I show it now and then.
I need a trumpet to share with you,
at the moment,
I'm blowing my own,
perhaps you can blow mine too,
support me in my new job quest,
let me prove myself the best,
trying hard to sell myself,
the very best I can,
as only I can do!
