The Performance
Slowly but Surely panic ensues
As I learn my Performance is due
A Nervous wreck I am
Terror silencing me; oh damn!
My stomach is churned by these wretched butterflies
So desperately I wish to say goodbye
But all those faces light up when they see me
Cheering and Jeering; Oh crap I have to pee
But that's too bad
So, so sad
Need to transform
It's time to perform
