Sticky Dry Mouth
Wanted or should i say wished
to do anything of substance
to be noticed
But went about it the wrong way
come to think of it
Should have just stuck to my guns
Stopped wanting and wishing for
thing's beyond my means
Trying to please
And just got on with my day job
Of being irreverent and irrelevant
A simple envelope filler with a
sticky tongue and dry mouth
With a mountain of bill's to pay
without means to pay them
And worst of all still no closer to
being noticed than before
Ignored by all and sundry and
finding myself agreeing with
them not me
