Bear with me as we talk,
When I say something not really interesting,
Bear with me when you are silent
And I murmur something 'funny',
Not funny enough.
Correct me with confidence
Of a crocodile in the river Nile
Of a fast-paced cheetah in the
East African Plains
With a voice
Not of that with a mane
But that of a gentle lamb.
Correct me, tell me, guide me
With kindness, unknown to the face
With seriousness unknown to the heart
Do not sing for me repeatedly
Unappealling songs of accusations
Chaining in every verse
My every transgression
Darkening my history.
