Second Chance

O, Judges... Don't be too hasty in showing me the door; I know it feels as though I'm a bore. So many times I've played out of tune, but I've been practicing since June. I have nothing to pay my house bills; yelling from my landlord kills. The last job I really tried; in frozen Alaska I almost died. Please, give me another chance, I prove to you my musical grace.....
