Still Keeping It Real

KEEPING IT REAL, part 1 (Still Keeping it Real is below) Rent one to own Feel like a conquering hero The most life-like robotic woman The "Caesar-Says-5-point-zero" With all the right curves To make your mouth water Graduate from the virtual Don't live in a monitor You are so smart, David And also you're so handsome I can dance like Britney Spears Or quote books by the volume Do you want to make love? Or perhaps just get nasty? I won't ask any questions If you want to get a little crazy But my eyes glaze over This wasn't such a deal I return it to the factory Because I need to keep it real So I get into perfect shape Cock my head with a robotic trace Then infiltrate 'real women' With a non-synthetic face STILL KEEPING IT REAL, part 2 I purchase a romance novel Committing lines to memory And struggle to keep a straight face From the absolute hilarity But practice makes perfect And I use my silver tongue I love you so much baby And I want us to make love Then I think of my muse Who I truly love so dear I con my way into their pants Words sounding so sincere But it doesn't take long Before the mirror I despise I reveal myself to one victim As I say the word "Surprise!" I observe the disintegration Between women and men Streets full of cyber couples They can turn off on a whim I gaze up toward the stars Have they experienced this atrophy? Perhaps the saying, "Know Thyself" Is the only way to complete me

AH! Below means like right underneath so it wasn't necessary for me to go back to your main page.. lol, live 'n learn. Anyhow, dig 'em both and the know thyself thing is a fully full timer i do believe.. AND.. i remain convinced that the only and best thing we can ever be for another is a mirror.
