I gotta go
I'm saying I'm done
It's been a hell of a run
I think it's time to quit
See, for to many years I've been doing this shit
It was fun
Why continue? When I've already won
I'm still alive
And I hope to live till I'm 105
Although I won't
Learning to fly, right now I float
Whats your vote
If you refuse to listen to what's spoke
Then just don't
What ever you say
I'm leaving, im out
I'm standing strait, you slouch
Viewing the world from a desk
Like a kid taking a test
Trying to do their best
To try to stay ahead
Of the rest, of the dead
That punch the clock
Mother said clean underwear clean socks
In case you stop and drop
And roll
Doing what we're told
Since the day born
I ignored
And stood up be for
At the back door
Where I waited
Half drunk and sedated
It was that that you hated
But she loved me anyway
So today
I'm leaving the grey
I'll look but I won't turn back
It was a hell of a life and I'll miss all that
Its time to gain weight and get fat
I thank you for staying hear
Times you thought I was gone I could still hear
I listened to your tone of voice
So while i still have a choice
I choose you over my boys
But I'll miss the noise
And All the laughter
But its always been you that has mattered
You're what I was originally after
That sound of pitter patter
Having kids was another step up the ladder
To the stories of our home
And when I reach the roof
The fairy tale will be true
It all started with me and you
In a McDonald's booth
So long ago
So many years I don't know
I still love the smile on your face
And the taste
Of your milk shake.
We share a straw
I love you for this most of all
Nights I didn't call
You seen through my flaws
And have given me chance after chance
Knowing one day by circumstance
I'd either fall or step dance
Tippy toes little piggys and a led foot
I'm done now it's understood
Like you thought I always would
And it's all good
I'll try to do as I should
And do right
But I am a creature of night
Somehow I survived
Now I'm learning the light
It hurts my eyes
Everytime I'm about to lose sight
I close my eyes tight
And state my plight
If gods listening then maybe he might
Give me strength to fight
The urge to revisit my past
I pray I ask
That I wear one hat without a mask
Least but not last
That I no longer entertain the hour glass
And as I look at her ass
I remember my prior task
To get her in the room
So folks I'll be leaving you soon
Keep your speed vroom vroom
Don't look for me I won't loom
I'll be with my bride
Why should I be her best man
When I can be her groom...
