I snap back to attention, but my body tells a lie
when my mind is on vacation far away and so
am I.
They never spot the missing link
I think because I'm good at blending in
or it might be the chameleon skin
that colours me and I fit in, do not
stand out nor raise a hand or smile, don't shout
just stand, be there but on vacation too, you can
do as I do to make the babble bearable, to
blend in and make life more wearable,
to snap back when you're far away
to span the gap from yesterday and
jump away from any day, I do it all the time,
Who, does it too but he has a Tardis,
I do not.
