I can't do it; It's too hard. Besides, I've never done it before. And I'm not smart enough. I'd probably mess it up. I mess up most things. So don't count on me, I'd just let you down. Sure, I'd like to do it. But I simply can't. I know, it could be fun. But only if I did it right. I've never done Anything right. As you say I won't know Unless I try it. But I couldn't risk Another failure You know very well If I don't do it right, They'll talk about me. They'll say. I told you so. I'll be laughed at. I'll be everybody's joke. I don't want to be hurt, Not again. I think I'll just stay right here, Right where I have always been. It's safe and comfortable. It's where I belong. But thanks for asking, Anyway
