I’m a battery just off the shelf
I’m fully charged and ready to power
I’m an eagle soaring over the mountains
I’m a bullet shot from a gun
I’m a super hero who can’t be killed….
I’m all that I want to be….
Being all that I can be is really being
I am all that I want to be
And be that as it may I’m really trying to be me
But being me is hard
But it’s still all me
Now I’ve confused myself
Talking about being me and all that I can be
And I’m standing in the sink
And the dog is barking at me from the kitchen floor
And the dog is wearing a bonnet that I think I put on it earlier
When I was playing a make believe game I made up
Where the dog was my girlfriend and I was solider back from the war
With a terrible secret to tell
But Tawny (my Terrier/girlfriend in the bonnet) just wanted to dance and not listen to my terrible secret
So Tawny and I just danced around and around the kitchen
Me holding her two front paws like I would a young maidens
Her bonnet so beautiful in the afternoon light
I can’t remember what happened next but I think I insisted that Tawny
Listen to my terrible secret and I think I shook Tawny a bit
And she bit me…..and I got scared and jumped into the sink
So that’s my day…..I guess I’m not really anything
But a complete loser standing in the kitchen sink
