One is a number

Two is a letter

Threes the word

1,2,3

Is the question to see

1,2,3

Will you say it back to me?

Mud on my shoes
Dirt on my cheek
My hairs a mess
Nothing to lose

Find me a napkin
Stole me a pen
Wrote me a message
Gave it to you then

1,2,3

Is the question to see

1,2,3

Will you say it back to me?

I've procrastinated my young life away
I'm not known for much or to even stay
But I do know what to say

All I got goin for me is my mind
It's one of a kind
I'll prove it too you
Just answer me a question:


"Hey there. You don't know me. I'm the guy in the corner with the goofy smile. I have a question to ask you....

One. Two. Three?"

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Oscar Wilde

Whenever I go to a party I immediatly go right to the corner looking for people with goofy smiles and ask them for a question.
But no, I don't give them my money: well, no more than a dollar. That's plenty for people in the corner with goofy smiles.

Haha, I wouldn't be surprised if I know the answer to this question. It's not so much the answer, but the craving for one.

There is power in the pen.

I delight in missing the point. it's a trick my mother taught me long ago. To get a laugh I mean.
