Harry Balls

Harry Balls is living well
He's preaching what he knows
He isn't very smart that way
but what he does is grows

To tell himself he moves to learn
and tries to get away
With telling people he is smart
and loving all his way

To say he's had a harder time
and never stopped to rest
While leaving out his very thoughts
of how he likes to test

And sees the water as half full
and never to the top
When others say he's not that smart
and water tends to drop

And won't tell Harry he's not right
for telling others things
When he himself has left to feel
what others questions springs
