So I Could Just Be Me

As wrangled as I am
I act just like a ham
But as trapped as I may be
Is something odd to see
Held within my snare
While sitting in my chair
Has left me feeling stuck
Like held beneath a truck
How to get un-wrangled
Or maybe even untangled
Is to simply be yourself
Its better for your health
Take time to get un-trapped
Before you’re feeling zapped
If you don’t know what to say
Just head outside and play
Escaping from in my snare
Let me slip from on my chair
How to get unstuck
Was moving the big truck
It left me feeling free
So I could just be me
