If I had a dime for every blank picture I drew,
I'd be the richest man alive, my feelings etched
And the pain still fresh and new. I'd give up on
Art or photos or music just to work 9-5,
But it wouldn't change me the same way as
Being different, one of the eccentric guys.
I've been a dreamer for years and years, and all the
"Real winners" just watch sports on the couch and
Drink beers! If anything this would seem like a down-
Grade to those in the past, how we make what they call
"Disney magic" last, but it's our right to be a slob,
To ruin our language with "ain't that car a beaut, Bob?"
But sadly to say the real harm has already been done,
And when it comes to paying the piper,
The ignorant gold diggers will be amidst the chosen ones.
