(at the risk of blowing all the nice comments for part 1) If I had only kept my lips shut, Tongue against my cheek I'd still today be in the chips but I just had to speak! If I had not gone and asserted Personality Into those dreaded words I blurted I would still be free. But, no! The pleasure of the hunt And easy conquest of the weak Took my foolish fancy by the hand And forced my lips to speak! Romeo now heads the P.T.A. And coaches baseball teams And never thinks of days gone by Except, at night, in dreams. If reincarnation does exist At the base of mankind's root Then the only prayer I have is this... Lord, let me come back mute! |
