Inners & Outers
I decided today to sit back
And take a look at my life
Not only from the out
But also from the inside
Like an innocent bystander
I'll take myself a gander
And what it is I find
I'll set it down in rhyme
I notice when I do look on the out
I'm always quick to throw out a smile
Pretty much all of the while
I guess a smile is just my style
The in is the one quick with the wit
That's one thing I must admit
Sometimes gets me into the thick
When it really comes down to it
For the inside to come clean
I must mean what I say and say what I mean
There's no doubt about them there beans
I hope you know what it is that I mean
I'm never much serious about
Anything life has to through out
I do love to clown and joke around
Hang with me and that you'll find out
But it's not always all fun and games
As the outside of me deteriorates
But that my friend is all of our fate
As the older we get and our hour is late
I look at the outside of me
And see an old man in the later degree
But in on the in playfully
Is the child still inside of me
That's pretty much who I am
Living this life the best that I can
On the inners and outers I'll play my hand
Wherever I tumble, wherever I land
So this is what I've come up with
When I took a look at my life
Not only from the out
But also from the inside
