Incognito

Incognito. If I could travel the world in shadows Think of the things I could see A fly on the wall incognito A chance to re write history Shall I sneak through the corridors of power? Listening in on our leaders so true A ghostly knight of shimmering honesty A sense of clarity for me and for you I will spend all day at the fun fair Sneak in the hall of mirrors for free A thousand different reflections But not one of them ever shows me I could parachute straight into a circus Camouflaged as clown or a bear Perform all the tricks for a roaring crowd But no one would even care I shall run naked through the streets of my city All laughter and joy to be free I will mock all the crowds in the rat race Bound up in their clothes and misery The temptation to peek is a strong one Must be wary and always take heed Do not take advantage of others Voyeurism not part of my creed When I travel the world in shadows Ill tell you all the things that I see No need for a cloak or a magic ring Because nobody ever sees me
