Shout
Shout
When your head's in a funk
if you smell a dead skunk
when goosed by an elephant's trunk
when your money is spent
ate cheeseburgers during lent
don't know where your life went
shout
if your lover has split
left you in a childish fit
you're so mad you could spit
you hear the same song and dance
from politicians there's not much of a chance
changes will come with that stance
just shout
if your skin is getting wrinkled
your hair with gray is getting sprinkled
not sure when's the last time you tinkled
if you forgot where you were headed
those final exams so dam dreaded
St. Pete's approval you've so fretted
you need to shout
maybe someone will hear
before you disappear
your cries so clear
not ready to say goodbye
buy a new bottle of dye
spike your hair up real high
and shout
Morpheus aka Gomer LePoet...
